Also no Offence but coreys point is sort of stupid. So your saying if the government decides to adopt Jesus as their artificial President it's not religions ( poor I example I know) The government adopting something doesn't make it nonreligious tbh. A Civil Union would be the non religious version or term to me.
There should be a division between church and the state, but marriage isn't really the same thing as adopting a dead guy as the president.
People have been getting married (in their cultures own sense, might not always be the traditional sense) sense before Greek times.
I really wasn't trying to make the point that if the government adopts it then it stops being religious, I'm saying it
SHOULD be.
Of course not everything can be used effectively by the government from religion, like throwing stones at rape victims if they were in a city. Marriage is different though, since it didn't originate with Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Too many people defend it as a concept of religion when it isn't.
