I actually think a lot of problems would be solved if we took sexuality out of the equation. Instead of marriage I think the government should have one designation- domestic partnership - for any two consenting adults who wish to form a household and live as each other's next of kin. The laws would apply to all the places that marriage now does- property ownership, healthcare, taxes, benefits, adoption, etc. Two adults - regardless of gender could make this legal arrangement. Then MARRIAGE becomes the province of the religion of the person's involved, and whatever their individual faith or faith's believe. That to me would keep the seperation of church and state, and allow all to act in accordance with the tenets of their beliefs.

The SCOTUS has to agree with our "amici curiae". 37 states and counting!

Praying that many will come to know that Christians are not all in favor of limiting God's gift of love.

If we truly believe that all are created equal, then that applies to marriage as well as any other aspect of our lives.
