parents are married.

Bah, what foolishness is this? Your basic 18th century mindset I think.

Marriage is a religious concept. Foo on those who think that perfectly committed people who have not been "married" are not capable of being parents.

Oxymoron alert. If they cant "commit" to a marriage "contract", then what exactly are they "committed " to? Whats your definition of "committed" And for how long is this commitment? and so on?

A church witnesses a marriage. A state makes sure it is legal - licensed.

Try telling a divorce court that marriage is just a religious concept.

Marriage is a state contract, not a religious idea.
