Another glorious win for the homo-phobes?

On a more serious note...

Where the people supporting changing marriage rules can legitimately win is by taking the power to make, validate, recognize and dissolve marriages away from the government. Make it only a religious or independent social phenomenon.

Instead I think some desire to make this an implicit validation of their lifestyle by the government, which is not something the majority currently agrees with.

There's no reason the government has to recognize marriages. Currently, it's really only done with determining who can testify against you in court or determining income tax rates.

Strangely, many conservatives like the idea of limiting the government's power so a move like this might spark some alliances not seen before.

But since that is almost certainly not going to happen, why shouldn't people who are homosexual attempt to force the existing system to include them?
