Marriage

A hot topic in America today is the subject of gay and lesbian marriages.  The type of union a person decides to make and who that union is with is outside of government's boundaries. 

The Bill of Rights states:  "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, ...."  To make a law prohibiting same sex marriage is tantamount to requiring marriage to be defined by the Christian religion (or other religions for that matter). 

From the government perspective, marriage should be viewed as a contract between two (or more) people to be treated as the same person with rights of survivorship, etc. depending on state laws concerning those matters.  Who those two people are should not be a concern to the government.

To advocate otherwise is to advocate a religious view and an attempt to convert others to a religious belief.
