Marriage between a man and a woman is a cornerstone for an orderly society. It creates stable family units and cannot be redefined at the whim of leftists. It is what it is and saying it is now something different doesn't make it right or true. "Let's pretend" does not stabilize society.
Constitution of Virginia, Article I, Section 15-A. Marriage.
That only a union between one man and one woman may be a marriage valid in or recognized by this Commonwealth and its political subdivisions. This Commonwealth and its political subdivisions shall not create or recognize a legal status for relationships of unmarried individuals that intends to approximate the design, qualities, significance, or effects of marriage. Nor shall this Commonwealth or its political subdivisions create or recognize another union, partnership, or other legal status to which is assigned the rights, benefits, obligations, qualities, or effects of marriage.
The amendment ratified November 7, 2006, and effective January 1, 2007Added a new section (15-A).
The state isn’t interested in stabilizing society, and deciding how to stabilize society isn’t how the state determines its definition of marriage. You can tell by the acceptance of no fault divorce and the growing state acceptance of ‘gay marriage.’
