So why is the government in the business of marriage? Giving "permission" via a license to marry?
I am married and do believe it to be a religious union of love and faith. I truly could care less about what the state recognizes. Get the state out of the marriage business and give everyone a legal partnership.
The sticking point here is those that hold marriage as sacred and a union before God between a man and a woman are deeply offended. Because according to their government, the marriage of two people of the same sex is the same thing and "ok". On a fundamental level the supporters of religious marriage refuse to acknowledge that they are similar in any way to gay secular marriage. To them it feels like the LBGT community is looking for public approval of their lifestyle by lumping their "marriage" together with the broad acceptance of religious heterosexual marriage.
Soooo
The state needs to get out of the business of defining marriage and leave it to each individual and their partner to marry in their own way. Religious or Secular.
I personally do not support the idea of Gay marriage but I also believe in individual rights. So if you were "made" that way and feel it is ok to pursue that lifestyle then carry on. It is your right to sin and I am not your judge. I leave that to the Lord above.
