Marriage proposal (get it its a pun)? (serious question though)?

Question

Are there restrictions surrounding what marriages can take place? For example if i want to marry a rock or a bear, are the conservatives going to be at my wedding to stop it? Or can i go for it? and are the rules surrounding the different types of bears?

Answer 1

there is no pun visible

if there is its too terrible and poor quality for anyone to recognize

just keep to the questions homie dont woe us with your cunning linguistic handicap

but i 've always wanted to marry my dog so i'd be curious to know how that goes

i bet if you go to the netherlands they'd do it

they're down for pretty much anything

Answer 2

Considering that the marriage union is also the joining of the two people for intercourse, I think that most would view this as beastiality since you want to marry a bear.  Even if it's a cute bear, you may not get the conservatives fired up, but you may get the animal rights activists pretty riled up.  

I'm almost positive that no preacher or judge is going to make this wedding happen since I'm sure the bear can't talk and say "I Do".  

Answer 3

umm....you can marry what ever you want i suppose

Answer 4

Well to get married legally, you need a marriage license and since you can't get a bear or a rock to sign one, you can't get anyone to legally marry you.  Sorry.

Answer 5

Beastiality is against the law.  

Answer 6

Answer 7

Current legislation defines a marriage as the union of a man and a woman.

Some states have added provisions for same s*x couples, because that law does not interfere with the federal definition and is considered alright.

Marriage between family members (2nd cousins or closer, if I remember), marriage to inatimate objects, etc are not legally recognized.  There is nothing stopping you from having the ceremony (save for your sanity, if applicable) - but you won't get to file jointly come tax season, sorry.  :)

Answer 8

My Republican friend William Haverford Smith, my real friend that I know in real life, and didn't make up just so I could illustrate some point, says that if your fundamental beliefs about life are not in line with his views, i.e.:

1) the Christian way

2) fighting evil and upholding good because there's only black and white and no gray

3) pulling yourself by your own bootstraps because all that stuff about society and social conditions affecting you is bull. (Even though I care about what my friends and family say and what people think about me, I still believe society affects me very little. This makes sense right?)

Mr. Smith says that if you don't believe in these simple good things, what does that tell you about yourself as a human being? Everything I said, says Mr. Smith, are good things. People know right from wrong, good from evil. Wasn't everything I said good? So why should you disagree.

Again, this is my republican friend whom I didn't just make up to tell you what a typical republican thinks or anything like that.

Answer 9

A marriage can only be performed between two CONSENTING adults.  A rock or a bear can't give their verbal and written consent to marry you.
