From your numerous posts stated that marriage and religion are not separate, it seems as though you obviously care. I was merely pointing out a FACT that proved you wrong. The above statement (fact or not) does not refute what I said in my post.

I'm glad there are plenty of Christians who don't believe/follow your particular brand of Christianity.

Not without a state issued marriage license. That's the part that makes the marriage legal, not the religious part.

I apologize, I thought posting the actual words of the preamble; here, again:


We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America


would have been clear.

<<I'm sure you can find a "church" that will marry you to a dolphin if you're so inclined.>>


Hmm...what does that say about organized religion?
