I think government should get out of marriage and leave it to the churches.

Since there is no government church in America, your argument is to end marriage as humans know it and just let everyone create their own definitions, which of course, the government will still have to recognize as it has throughout history.

Marriage has always had a legal definition whether it was from the Greeks or Romans or Sharia law or Catholic law for a while, or tribal law, or whatever, marriage and families and death and divorce lead to the need for law.

People right now can just live in sin and call it whatever the hell they want to call it. Doesn't mean I have to recognize it. My church looks quite unfavorably on homo marriage, or divorce for that matter.
