In another thread about this subject, someone posted that this whole "marriage" thing was a religious ceremony and should have no impact or relation on how the US government should recognize a "couple".

I totally agree with that and wish that was the case. However, that is not so.

In my opinion, I don't give a shit who marries who. I just got married because my wife dreamt of that since she was playing with barbies. By law, were were married "by common law" many years before without signing a paper and again a few years after that when I had a common law paper notarized so I could get her on my health benefits. Did getting "married", traditionally, change anything ? No.

There are many forms a "marriage" or a recognizable status of being "married" in the US (as I see it, though it could just be my perspective). The only issue here is that the conservative public and the conservative government that plays to them are mistaking what a legal union between two engaged in a binding relationship that engage in sex is.

That's how I see it. If the thought of marriage had nothing to do with who fucks who, it would be more like a business partnership and thus not frighten anyone.
