Hey if she was born that way, why not changing the marriage laws to include not just whoever but whatever we want to marry. I mean I really love my shotgun and we have been together for 31years, who is the world to seperate such a happy couple? I dont think my wife would approve.

I honestly, 100% do not believe homosexuals are born to be homosexuals. I do believe that we are all tempted by some pretty vulgar things and chose to give into some of these temptations, which I see homosexuality as a temptation and not a lifestyle.

Will she get a tax break too? And is she considered French now or the Eiffel Tower considered American?

A love story: Meet the woman who "married" the Eiffel Tower!

Objectum-Sexuals - 'Good Morning America' Video | Morning Rush
hmm.. its not objectum sexual if she doesn't have sex with it right? wait.. where have I heard that before?

of course as to her mental state.. well I don't judge here.. she judges herself:

Woman with objects fetish marries Eiffel Tower - Telegraph

"She blames her upbringing for her condition. She claims to have been molested by her half-brother and abandoned by her parents to various foster homes."

So do I think she is "crazy"? Dunno.. I'm not a physician.. I would say being molested by her half-brother and abandoned by her parents probably has something to do with it. Its my only guess.. totally based off what SHE says.


I mean come on... I'd bet 30% of christian marriages in the united states consist of one person loving an inanimate object (that being their significant other)


HEYYYY OHHHHHHH!

Breaking news:

If gay marriage is approved people will marry box turtles.

Glenn Beck's head explodes.

Edit: Actually Glenn Beck's head exploding would be reason alone for gay marriage..

I'd say the woman has a few issues. I mean, I can appreciate good architecture. The Eifel Tower is impressive, as are many man-made building, bridges, and machines. I'd grant her the right to marry any or all of those objects just as soon as one of those objects can offer consent and sign on the dotted line

Based on all I believe to be true. Anyway, I get the point that we overuse, and perhaps misuse, the term normal. Since the list of things we are all largely ignorant of is drastically bigger than the list if things we know, I suppose anything is possible and I should never say never. Still, as a betting man, I'm betting that pigs won't fly and monkeys won't soon be flying out of my ass. I'm also betting that the Eiffel Tower does not emote. Therefore, this will be a one-sided marriage for sure.

Not the same, "based on all I believe to be true" She can say the same. What makes your truth truer than her truth?

You're right. Maybe all of us who are in the bell curve, or close to it, are wrong. Maybe all the "normal" perceptions are off base. Anyway, her perception is unique and I don't hold it against her. I just don't buy it. Sadly, I have no scientific model to support my position. In other words..."What the bleep do I know about it?"

Oh come now...isn't that a cop out? Christianity says that THERE IS absolute truth and it is Jesus Christ. There must be truth. Someone has to be right. wouldn't you think?
