It appears any moisture on this oxidized copper table top leaves a mark I can't seem to remove. Does anyone have any way to restore the original finish without damaging it further?

Your table may have had a clear coat on it when you bought it, if it did it will have to be replaced. You could use any of the copper, silver and brass cleaners if it doesn't have the clear finish. You can also go to your local auto parts store and buy a rubbing compound made for lacquer and plastic finishes and use that to clean it, I've used it on some very shiny paint finishes and does a great job.

Believe it or not, KETCHUP!!
Cover the table top with an even (somewhat thick) coat of ketchup and let it sit for a while. Use a soft cloth to rub it in, let it sit a while longer, and wipe it off with a soft cloth, then clean the residue away with a baking soda solution (dissolve 1 part baking soda to 3 parts warm water)
Just be sure to wring your cloth out well and use it damp, not wet.

Where I live, a predominately Catholic country by the way, there is legal marriage and religious marriage. They are separate issues. People who are religious generally have two ceremonies. The first is the legal one where the union is recognized legally and confers the legal status, rights, and benefits from the State. It is usually performed by a government employee. The second ceremony would be their religious ceremony that joins them in the eyes of god according to their personal beliefs performed by clergy or representative of their religion. A religious ceremony alone though doesn't confer legal rights or marital status by the state. Its just about their personal religious beliefs. So no, marriage is not an exclusively religious institution and even in religions there are different religions and differing points of view on it.

Mix salt with vinegar and when copper is added it makes a reaction that cleans the copper. You can try it with a penny to see how it works. Hope this helps.

Use silver polish, or copper cleaner. Also try contacting the furniture manufactorer. Sometime ehy have cleaning tips for their products.

you can try slightly diluted lemon juice-try it in a small spot first to see if it is the result you want...then rinse AND DRY.
