no, marriage of a man and a woman is still the parvenu of the Church.
a Contract for Cohabitation becomes the parvenu of common law
this solution was available prior to the SCOTUS decision. the CFC is in effect an LLC corporation, a contractual arrangement to achieve the goal of managing common property and interests and finances under the IRS code
My children had a babysitter who shared an apartment with her handicapped brother. She been responsible for his care for decades
So?....Why couldn't this brother and sister form an LLC under a “Contract for Cohabitation” and receive all the legal and tax benefits that a gay couple will now enjoy?
God created, defined, and instituted marriage thousands of years before there even was a church. It was a precious gift to all of mankind, not just the church.
Marriage is the familial, societal, governmental, and economic building block of our civilization, our country, and our communities. It is fundamental to the laws of nature and of natures God, and absolutely necessary to the fulfillment of the ultimate stated purpose of the U.S. Constitution, which is to secure the Blessings of Liberty to our Posterity.
In short, the attack on the natural family represents an existential threat.
