The whole idea of marriage was created in the US for economic reasons?
Sure, some people have and still are adding their own "spice" to it (requiring dowries and such) , but it was not used nor created for economic reasons. We may however have turned it that.
I said the IDEA of marriage is religious in nature, not WHERE you get married makes it religious in nature. I can't speak exactly as to what is said during a courthouse wedding since I have only attended one and yes, God was mentioned.
What I don't understand that if some are so determine to have a seperation of church and state, why should we not get rid of the "married" classification? This is something that is specifically mentioned in throughout the Bible and is practiced within Biblical guidelines.
