The last item also may get some traction. Go at the benefits and rights that attach to the institution and ask why one class of citizen should be bereft of the possibility of these benefits while others are not. I'm guessing the court steam rollers that argument though.
You're right interesting subject.
Yeah, personally I think that's the most effective argument. There are so many legal implications to marriage these days that I think you can build a pretty good case going down this path. The rest of it is fairly easily gainsaid, as you pointed out. You could go back and forth on that all day long. But when you start getting into specific legal ramifications where the law treats two people differently depending on whether they are married or not, I think you can build up some traction.
