I understand your belief that marriage is a Godly institution, but the reality of it is that legally it is a civil institution and can be performed by anyone licensed to do so. So the bottom line here is denying one group their civil liberties leads to denying other groups theirs (as we as Black folk know oh too well.) I, too applaud the NAACP for taking the stand.
BTW, everyone check out the website for the National Black Justice Coalition www.nbjcoalition.org on this issue and others.
