Actually, I don’t think the government should be giving subsidies and tax deductions for ANY marriage. Get the government - and tax code - out of the marriage business entirely.

Exactly. But until we can do that, the homos will have to take a hike on marriage... it is not a biological function of the human organism...

Even better yet, until we abolish Socialist Security, make a marriage certificate equal to a birth certificate... NO MORE DEADBEAT PARENTS...

...Meaning a couple, once married, could never be divorced? There are far too many “abusive” marriages for such a decree to ever be practical. Further, if the government is completely out of the marriage business - as we both have stated we would ultimately like to see - who would or could ever enforce such a law? The only marriage “certificate” a married couple would have would be from the church who performed the marriage. It would not be legally binding if the government was out of the marriage business.

Regarding “homos tak(ing) a hike on marriage,” well, same sex couples are going to do what they want to do, whether you or I like it or not. Frankly, I don’t care what they do - I just don’t want the government telling anyone you can/can’t be married, and then offering tax breaks, subsidies, or other ‘amenities’ to those it recognizes as married couples.
