It’s those extra special rights that annoy me the most. If everyone was treated as an individual, as our Constitution demands, there would be none of this crap becoming an issue. Our government is as much at fault on the marriage issue as anyone.
Marriage should be the provenance of religion. Churches should be the ultimate authority on marriage. Government is prohibited by the 1st Amendment of the Constitution to interfere in religion. Civil unions should be the only venue for a government based committment between two people or however many of any combo they can get passed into law.
Marriage should be limited to the church. However, as we know from the Robinson case of the Episcopal faith, homosexuals are celebrated. So not all churches would limit marriage to one man and one woman. The world has gone through periods of nonsense and stupidity before. I guess it’s our turn once again.
