Homosexual Marriage

[Lucky11]

hmm i won't relay my opinion on this matter but i will say that marriage has always been an act of religion not just two ppl getting together for the rest of their lives the government in the US whether ppl want to believe it or not stems from a strong religious background mostly protestant in origin marriage was used by the government as a tool in the recognition of couples to ensure that all matters of state would be handled with as little grievance as possible, marriage was also used to designate authority with the household when the country was founded the head of the household was held with responsibility for the rest men could and were fined and jailed due to actions their spouses and children did, now that is not say the individual involved wasn't punished they were its just the family unit was given more liberty and thus more responsibility since then marriage has been used in recognizing financial dependence and the duality of ownership of all possessions of the couple, land, home, cars, whatever. anyways now that i've rambled on a bit my point is that marriage was, is, and will still be a religious pact that the government uses in the organization of society that being said in the end the entire point of having a recognized and legal marriage is based on the need to be excepted into society and regardless of governmental approval it is the religious side of the common populace that will in the end accept or reject and at the moment it is rejecting the validity of any marriage of same sex. besides marriage is never something to be entered lightly whether it is til death do we part which sadly most of society seems to forget or forgo
