wrong it's forbidden according to the Talmud and codified by the Rambam.

Dropping informed consent would change all contract laws. It would also mean that I could marry you, even if you didn't want to. It would be an unworkable system.

Again why do you always bring up "terrorists" when they have nothing to do with Homosexual Americans?
because they want ban Orthodox Jews from opening a business

Take your own advice for once would you.

And just so you know - it's NOT forbidden by Jewish law to rent property for a wedding between two members of the same sex. Maybe your branch of Judaism says that, but that's not the overarching law concerning all of Judaism, so nice try but it didn't work.
yes it is. It most likely even is forbiden even if I was to be shot if I didn't comply.

No they don't. Dig up some evidence proving this, then we'll talk.

Now you're just acting ignorant and being silly.

Join us back in the civil world, will you? You don't get to decide what is and what isn't funded by the American people. Get used to it, chump.

Then he married the maimed boy in traditional rites, and afterward treated him as his wife. (Nero had previously assumed the role of bride and took his wine steward, the freedman Pythagoras, as his husband.)"

The pedophile Nero's "marriage" to his slave boy seems be a common example used by the members of your tribe. No informed consent there.
A pro-ssm who does not believe informed consent is necessary for marriage? What the hell are you talking about? How the hell did you get that from the relaying of an historical event?
