How about this Conhog, do you believe Marriage is a contract between two people?
contract - definition of contract by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.1.
a. An agreement between two or more parties, especially one that is written and enforceable by law. See Synonyms at bargain.
b. The writing or document containing such an agreement.
2. The branch of law dealing with formal agreements between parties.
3. Marriage as a formal agreement; betrothal.
As currently stands? No, marriage is NOT a contract between two people. It is a contract between a person, a person, and the state. And that is why the state gets a say in how things are done. IMO the state should be removed from the equation.
And you should learn the difference between a fundamental right, and a constitutional right. Marriage is the former, but not the latter.
Oh, and in case you didn't know, I am for allowing gays to marry.
