In the last post, Preciousjeni says that some people believe in divorce while others allow polygamy and so on...
It is true that some people may decide to practice different behavoirs while they are married. However, there are laws that prohibit and define certain things. It is illegal to marry more than one person at the same time.Even divorce and annulment have certain stipulations to them that are defined by laws. So, my point is that marriage is already defined by law and it is of concern to the government. If it weren't there would be no need for any type of license to marry. If it were completely a religious institution, it would not be recognized by the government for tax purposes and other benefits.
For gays to marry, means that the government has to allow additional tax breaks for married couples, which will cost more money. Companies will have to cover more people on their insurances, which will add more to their expenses as well. Don't just look at the religious people as the villians here. There are other entities that are not going to be pleased with gay marriage either.
