>> “The right to marry is a long understood right under common law” <<
.
It was a right given by God for over 5000 years before common law existed.
State sanctioned marriage is a violation of Jeremiah 17:5-8
We are not to put our trust in man over God.
.
And Jeremiah talks about complete reliance on man, not anything about marriage.
Context is everything.
Yes, the right to marry is old, much older than common law. But our government is partially founded on common law. So I spoke to that.
Context, anyone?
