I was about to post a question similar to this before I opted to search for it first.
There wouldn't even be a religious debate if the government wasn't involved. Far less people in general would be interested in doing it, and it would turn into a purely religious ceremony. There would be no need to protest the church for gay marriage, since there would be some other church that would marry them. The whole thing would be a non-issue.
I don't think it will ever happen because the idea of it is too entrenched in our heads and people aren't willing to change.
I consider myself a Christian, and I believe that the one thing ruining marriage is the legal recognition.
Is it normal to think the government should be uninvolved in marriage?
