| Because most of what the government legislates is not marriage, it is families. What rights a family member has in regards to property, legal guardianship, other benefits derived from a family member's employment. There are thousands of very crucial laws that involve families that every family needs. What the government is doing when it issues a marriage certificate is not sanctify a marriage but granting the rights of a family to the couple under our laws. All that marriage crap is just a red herring thrown up by the godbots to throw everyone off. Gays can already go to a church and get married in the eyes of god.
