I always wonder, why is it necessary that we have a government definition of marriage at all? I mean, if I want to file taxes jointly with someone or declare them my next of kin, why does it matter whether they're a spouse or a lover or a close friend or a roommate maybe even just a trusted business partner?
ReplyDeleteSo I don't support federally recognized marriage equality, because I don't support federally recognized MARRIAGE. If two people want to call what they have a marriage, that's between them, their families (if any) and their church (if any). The federal government shouldn't enter into it at any level.
You rock!!! Thanks, Jen!
ReplyDeleteBen - unfortunately, I don't think that federal marriage policy is going to change anytime soon (or ever), so I'll argue for what I hope I can get. If someone wants to get married, they should! And, they should receive the same rights, privliges, recognition, benefits etc. as I have.
ReplyDelete**and by federal marriage policy, I mean the fact that marriages are sanctioned by the government (and it is technically the state governments, not the federal govermnent that regulate it)
