Should America repeal gay marriage? Marriage was always a religious thing after all
>>540206041It obviously isn't exclusively religious, and doesn't actually need to be religious at all.
>>540206041Why even get married if you're going to fuck 20,000 other men in the ass anyways? The concept of marriage should be strictly limited to legally registered religious institutions, coalitions, and foundations instead of governments. That way, the idea behind marriage doesn't get bent or re-defined in a way that includes every kind of person that it shouldn't in the moral framework of that religious circle. In this scenario, the church and state are separate but one lends legitimate credence to another. Faggots of course would be mad about this because they won't be legally recognized as parents, won't get any tax benefits from being married, nor can they be a part of a religious organization that has legitimate historical roots.
I support gay marriage as long as it's Christian
>>540206041>muh first amendmentno
>>540206482I might argue that if a state can lend legitimate credence to a religion then that's reason to be skeptical of the religion, and if it can't then an attempt to do so just makes the state look pathetic and pandering.
>>540206041The religious ceremony of marriage has always been LEGAL for gays to do. That was always protected by freedom of religion. It was letting them get the legal contract that changed things.
>>540206719I guess some rules to grant credence would involve the analysis of ancient documents by a specialized bureau of historical experts, religious scholars, and archaeologists to find centuries old documents to determine the roots of a religion and grant them a certification upon finding legitimate proof of this religion's existence and moral framework.
>>540206913Who's doubting that a religion exists? Even if it's younger or older than you think it is, how does that impact whether or not there are present practitioners? Anyway, I'd personally distrust anyone who told me to take their religion seriously because some government bureaucrat gave them a certificate. I hope most people on this board feel similarly.
>>540207175I guess religion can more-so be judged from a sense of a shared moral framework rather than just carrying a historical footprint.
>>540206041fag marriage isnt among the top10 worst problems with amerifuck family "law"

The act of marriage doesn't need the churchThe partners confer the sacrament on each other through consent the priest is just a witness
