That is one heck of a feeble and crumbling foundation for a legal doctrine. Secular marriage will collapse down to a mere at-will contract, voidable by either party at any time and for any reason or no particular reason at all.

It would be ironic that women, who benefit greatly from marriage (legally and otherwise) were suckered into supporting gay marriage because 'they should be allowed to visit each other in the hospital' and 'love is love' and it opened a Pandora's box that destroyed marriage as an institution.

Ironic but predictable that it would head this way. Sadly those predictions fell on deaf ears. And here we are.

What got us here is the 19th Amendment.

The Judeo-Christian concept of “marriage” was legally destroyed in the West at a time when few people saw any purpose in real traditional marriage; now there is even less incentive to get married (it has become a joke).

Christians should marry like William Wallace/”Braveheart” (in secret with just the couple and a priest and no civil authority present). Added benefit of no in-laws present (/s)
