Why stop there? Take marriage out of the laws completely.
If your religious institutions marries men to men, women to women, or hell, men to goats or chairs, I don't see why the government should stick its nose in it.
- Tiksi 12y agoWhile I agree that it's not the government's place to be involved in marriage, I doubt marriage will ever be taken out of the laws. If only for tax reasons alone, most (married or planning to be married) people will be against abolishing the laws that give them a tax break. Plus, marital status is deeply intertwined with many laws/regulations.
