What does government marriage have to do with religious marriage? Do you consider government to be the determiner if you are "married" or not in the eyes of God?
>Marriage< is the Joining of One Man and One Woman.
What about answering the question? Does government marriage = marriage? I say absolutely not, a huge reason I don't care that much about gay government marriage any more than other marriage other than I object to doing it by judicial crimes rather than through the legislature. I don't think government should be involved in "marriage" at all, there should be no such thing
