I do not understand how allowing Fred and Joe to marry is more destructive to The Family (tm) than a 50+% divorce rate, than an economy where both parents must work, than a nation that refuses to provide the most basic of services for its most vulnerable citizens: children. (We were doing better, then the budgets all tanked)
So I'm dense.
So I'm "Not Right with God."
I like our marriage system: you get the certificate, which is a legal function and have the ceremony performed by a licensed personage. The ceremony may be a secular or as religious as the couple wants it, and in any location.
I just don't see a need to restrict it to heterosexual couples. I think marriage should be open to any number of adults capable of signing a legal contract.
But that's far too logical.
