And you would be wrong.

You’re not hearing what I’m saying. The marriage union is not just a spiritual matter. It is the forming of the natural family, therefore it is the formation of the most basic unit of self-government. Which means that the broader government has an existential interest in the matter.

Governments have pretty much recognized marriages for the most part since written history began and offered some type of protection (Restitution if affordable mainly for widows). In the United States/British North America a couple would get married then usually file some sort of public recognition to the State/municipalities that they were joined (Sometimes from the Church or the person who said the rites). This was a common custom for obvious reasons, but unfortunately there was a lot of fraud occurring concerning couples/females/males who claimed they were married.

As a State authority, what would you do to maintain order and prevent fraud in the wake of Social Security laws, tax laws, pension laws, and military wives whose husbands were KIA on behalf of the State etc...? Keep in mind you can't just waive a magic wand to make all those pesky laws and situations go away. Also if you pull an Augustus by decreeing low ranking soldiers cannot marry be careful of your retention rates. Higher ranks also have huge monetary prices as well and sometimes they get KIA as well.

I don't like marriage licenses, but the real world and corruption often complicates Utopian ideals.

Biden works with obama and Hillary Clinton.
Both are on the “other side” while Bill Clinton likes young underage women provided by his pedophile friend Jeffery Epstein. It is no wonder we want marriage to be between a man and a women.

These people would have children being married off or threesome or whatever twisted thing they can think of.

I would argue that the true legal basis for denying sodomites the right to enter into the civil union known as marriage was the incompetency statutes.

An incompetent person (insane) can not legally enter into a contract (or be held accountable for their actions)

Historically, being attracted to someone of the same sex was thought of as a mental illness. Basically, anyone attracted to a person of the same sex was thought to be insane and thus incompetent and unable to enter into ANY contract.

When the sodomites successfully infiltrated the American Psychological Association back in the 70’s and declared themselves sane, we lost the underpinning legal basis for denying sodomites the right to enter into a civil union or any other contract.

They are “life bigots”. They obviously hate the way nature operates... and then they call themselves scientific evolutionists....

"We're never going to be able to eliminate the bigots," Biden continued his rant. "They're a small percentage of the population."

WHAT BIDEN IS REALLY SAYING: "We're never going to be able to eliminate Christians and Jews..."

Biden has probably spanked the monkey so often in his life It has, no doubt, affected his feeble brain.

What a simpleton this parasite is. He can’t keep his hands off women and little girls.

Was Teddy Kennedy ever excommunicated? If he wasn’t, I’m guessing Biden won’t be.

He wasn’t calling on “Jesus, God” for a prayer, chat, or some solution from the omniscient, he was just using the names because of the attention getting power they possess. That’s using the Lord’s name in vain.

Hey, everybody! Joe’s calling Ben Carson crazy!

That’s pure comedy gold, my friends.

“The vice president then resorted to name calling, insinuating that Carson and others who ascribe to the biblical view of homosexuality should be eradicated from the planet in the name of “equality” and “tolerance.”

Our current Vice President is actually calling for a Christian Holocaust! But hey, it’s just ole crazy Joe, so the press will give him a pass.

If anyone questions the left’s willingness to open gulags, just re-read these comments!

“To date, 37 states plus the District of Columbia have legalized same-sex marriage, whereas it was legal in only three states when Obama took office in January 2009.”

This statement, by the GOP, is precisely WHY they are continuing to lose their conservative base. This would have been the perfect opportunity to point out that liberal judges have overturned the people in nearly every one of those states, if not all!

But hey, we can’t expect the GOP to actually fight for anything more than donations.

This alone tells me that they have no real interest in being the opposition party to tyranny, they just want to use Biden’s gaffes for fundraising.

Defund the GOP!
