In other words, semantically, I think the word "marriage" should apply to man/woman.

But as to the legal stuff, I have no problem if it is applied to gays.

I also favor provisions for polygamy in cases of cultural/religioius beliefs.

I find it odd that the church is apparently requesting that polygamists in Africa divorce all but one wife before baptism. What happens to these discarded wives and children? It doesn't fit with my beliefs in taking care of what you started. But who am I?

Agreed on all counts.
