Marriage and discrimination?

Question

Take two adults of legal age who have given informed consent to share affection, live together, profess to care about each other deeply, and plan on spending the rest of their lives together.

Explain to me again why the *federal government* has any business discriminating between different couples who do this freely and voluntarily based on their sex organs?

If we're going to talk about families, remember that many heterosexual couples do not, or can not, have children, but we permit them the same benefits as any married couple.
If we're going to talk about the concept of sin, remember that the federal government is not a religious entity and does not make such judgments.

Homophobes are still everywhere.
Some damned preacher says they are bad, and the whole congregation takes up arms, blindly doing the church's atrocities for it.  Beat a gay guy, and go to confession, say some mumbo-jumbo, and go look for another one?
It is discrimination, and it is intentional by the church.

There is no legitimate reason not to allow consenting adults to get married (I really don't think the government should be involved at all) but...America is supposed to be about freedom and equality. For those who have a problem with that, there are plenty of theocracies they can move to.

Government is the most evil entity created by man, but you should be more concerned with pleasing God and obeying His word. The government can only help you or destroy you in this life, but Jesus holds the keys to hell and death; He has the power given by His Father to give you eternal life in Heaven; It's your choice.
