    Marriage was created by God/Religion, God/Religion therefore defines and sets rules of marriage. Government has no business in marriage period and I can't understand why we let the government even have any part in the marriage process. People want to say oh religion has no business in government with separation of church and state BS that doesn't exist and yet take a religious ritual and make it a part of the government/state.

    I agree with you. But being married gives you certian rights. My church would allow me to marry because i didnt finish certain things with them. I agree a church should be allowed not to marry someone. But if the state is going to marry people then they should marry everyone. If a state marriage is called a civil union then it shoudl be for everyone.
