Same-Sex Marriage!! Your Thoughts

Completely agree FPRLG.

I think a likely outcome to this debate is that we get rid of state sponsored marriage altogether and let it become purely a ceremonial title (as it should be imo). The only thing state sponsored should be a contract that grants certain rights from one person to another/others.

It would be interesting to know when and why marriage law first came to be in the US. My guess would be state sponsored marriage is purely tax code related.
