As I said before, if you think Catholic priests will not be forced into performing gay marriages lest they be stripped of their right to perform marriages recognized by the state, you're kidding yourself.

In most European countries, people have two marriage ceremonies. One at the government office, then they walk to the Church for the real marriage ceremony.

Personally, I think our government should be out of the marriage business altogether.

There has always been marriage law, no matter what the ruling authority was called, government, a state religion, tribal law, the fact is that there was law regarding marriage, divorce, children, inheritance.

We need to quit wasting time on this childish stuff, and come up with some conservative politics.
