Marriage is a religious bonding of two beings.

Er...if you'd actually read any of the thread you'd see that we long since acknowledged that the seperation of church and state means that churches can decided all on their own whether they want to allow it or not, but that our entire discussion was about the -LEGAL- status of "Married" which (also because of the seperation of church and state) has nothing to do with religious union at all.
