Having redefined marriage to mean almost any human, animal or inanimate object union in any combination, some are now on a quest to find a way of further distorting it in order to plumb new depths of absurdity. In this case, a homosexual man has “married” a heterosexual woman and they are calling it “art”; for all the meaning that it has, they might as well have called it a plate of egg and chips.
From here:
CREATIVE students proved that opposites really do attract when they took their wedding vows – and turned marriage into a work of art.
Nora Battenberg-Cartwright, aged 21, and Paul Cartwright, 20, married in Germany a few days after Christmas to show their commitment to each other – artistically.
However, while they are legally married, live together in the centre of Worcester and are very close friends, Mrs Battenberg-Cartwright is straight, and Mr Cartwright is gay.
The pair, both studying fine art at the University of Worcester, decided to make themselves into an artwork as part of their coursework they are undertaking in their second year.
They make sure they co-ordinate their outfits every day and also make their own clothes – including Mrs Battenberg-Cartwright’s gold wedding dress.
I was telling my wife about this and my ten yr old son overheard and said “that’s ridiculous!”
The Manitoba Marriage Act at least ( and I suspect others) is interesting in that it never qualifies “person” as “natural person”. It does have an age restriction, though, so it would take some years to set up the obvious hack of arranging the marriage of two corporations.
Hmmmm…. Maybe the Anglican and the United churches could try again?
Soooo….just what happens if she gets pregnant?
Gawk,
What do you think she’ll do if she get pregnant? In this techno, libertarian, do your own thing age we live in, I bet she either terminates it or brings it to some druid temple and offers it as a sacrifice.
In all seriousness though, this is really dumb.
Almost as dumb as homosexual marriage.
Yes Eph 3:20 I forgot about Baal and his inferno.
Funny, Henry!
Did they apply for a Canada Council grant?
