Why is marriage something the government has it’s hands in anyway?

Why do I need a licence like a dog? It isn’t like there is a test or something. It’s just a money maker.

Yup. We’ve just GOTTA change those rules. We’re real professors. We have absolutely NO accomplishments (save for those in useless journals that no one ever reads). Trust us.

Marriage is the foundation of society. It seems evident that these professors have not considered one awkward matter—children. Children need stable families to thrive, and a nation needs healthy children to thrive. Without stable marriage, there is no hope for the future—of the children, of the society, of the nation.

I would venture to guess that these professors favor abortion.

"All societies are based on rules to protect pregnant women and young children. All else is surplusage, excrescence, adornment, luxury, or folly which can, and must, be dumped in emergency to preserve this prime function. As racial survival is the only universal morality, no other basic is possible. Attempts to formulate a 'perfect society' on any foundation other than 'Women and children first!' is not only witless, it is automatically genocidal. Nevertheless, starry-eyed idealists (all of them male) have tried endlessly---and no doubt will keep on trying." - Robert Heinlein aka Lazarus Long

Under our approach, the only legal status states would confer on couples would be a civil union, which would be a domestic partnership agreement between any two people,” the authors of Nudge promise. In an asterisk attached to that sentence just quoted the authors set off more alarm bells.

“We duck the question of whether civil unions can involve more than two people,” they admit.

Why stop at two? I have always been against gay marriage because it leaves bisexuals without an ability to marry each partner.

The professors are exactly right. The government’s job is to enforce legal contracts, not to define “marriage” in a religious sense. Leave marriage (as a sacred institution) to the churches, and leave government-enforced contracts to the parties who choose to enter into them.

Sounds good on the surface, but society as a whole has a vested interest in protecting marriage and the family. Break down the family, and the society breaks down. (It’s happening before our eyes.)

Isn’t this what Israel already does? Marriage is just a private, religious institution.
