I found this at Sowrongago. If the Bush administration wants to use the Bible's idea of what marriage is, I might not object too much. Check it out. (yes, the point is to prove the Bush double-standard)
Some people say US marriage law should be based on the Bible (especially the Old Testament). It's always worth reminding ourselves of the Biblical marriage-law:
1. Marriage consists of a union between one man and one or more women. (Gen 29:17-28; II Sam 3:2-5)
2. Marriage shall preserve a man's right to take concubines in addition to his wife or wives. (II Sam 5:13; I Kings 11:3; II Chron 11:21)
3. A marriage is valid only if the wife is a virgin. If the wife is not a virgin, she shall be executed. (Deut 22:13-21)
4. Marriage of a believer and a non-believer shall be forbidden. (Gen 24:3;Num 25:1-9; Ezra 9:12; Neh 10:30)
5. If a married man dies without children, his widow will marry the man's brother. If the brother refuses to marry the widow or deliberately
does not give her children, he must pay a fine of one shoe and may get additional punishments. (Gen. 38:6-10; Deut 25:5-10)
6. Any man or woman who commits adultery shall be put to death (Leviticus 20:10; Deut Ê22:22).
7. Divorce is absolutely prohibited (Deut 22:19; Mark 10:9)"
