Re: Federal Judge: Indiana Must Recognize Gay Coup
Yes, the gov't shouldn't be involved in marriage, but it is primarily because of social security benefits. Since the gov't has allowed tax and other benefits to those that are married, the gov't cannot discriminate as to how those benefits are handed out.
As long as there are legal/tax benefits tied to marriage, we cannot stop the fed or state gov'ts from legalizing same-sex marriage. It will happen and I predict that it will be legal in all 50 states within the next 5 years. That doesn't mean we have to like it or agree with it.
Oh yeah and I almost fell out of my chair laughing at Aquilla's "fabulous" divorce court tv comment.
