You're attempting to redefine nature and marriage to suit your tautology. Murder is in fact natural to humans, and to other primates as well. The same is true with homosexuality, it's natural because it exists in nature.

You're trying to say it's morally wrong without using those words so you redefine what it means to live according to nature.

You now claim it is our nature to live according to your understanding of biblical morality, that to live any other way is to go against nature when in reality it only goes against your understanding of biblical morality.

<<Clearly humans live contrary to nature all the time,>>

To quote Love and Rockets:

"You cannot go against nature, because if you do, go against nature, that's part of nature too..."

Let me ask you a hypothetical question: What if in the near future, copulation ceases to be the main method of reproduction. What if science evolves to the point where a child's DNA is no longer the combination of its parents' DNA, what if cloning and bioscience allow us to alter a child's DNA and that becomes a normal form of procreation?

Then what happens to your tautology? Will the doctors who manipulate the child's DNA be married?
