BIBLICAL MARRIAGE
Click on the chart for the larger view.
Above is Bosco's chart which illustrates marriage according to the Bible. Well, it's not really Bosco's chart, but I lifted it from his blog, and he does not know the origin, so I call it Bosco's chart. We hear the phrase 'biblical marriage' tossed around quite often, along with 'redefining marriage', from folks who oppose same-sex marriage. I will never hear or read those phrases again without laughing and thinking of the chart.
Biblical marriages are of such variety as to boggle the mind, and marriage has been redefined countless times through the ages. If a person used either of the phrases to argue against same-sex marriage with me, I'd ask them, "Of which type of biblical marriage do you speak?"
Then I'd whip out my copy of the chart, which I'd always carry with me, and say, "Pick one."
As for the charge of redefining marriage, the chart would demonstrate clearly that marriage has been redefined many times.
