The incredibly simple and effective solution is to get government out of the personal affairs of citizens by not issuing marriage licenses at all.

Any religious organization worth its salt would take the same position as this.

I’m partly leaning towards agreeing with you that perhaps government ought not to be involved in marriage licenses, BUT you do realize that in practical terms that there would still be divorce lawsuits and related legal matters put before the courts, right?

(And that assumes the liberal and LGBTABCDEFG movements would let matters proceed without causing as much heartache and mischief as possible.)

Me, I’m guessing if we don’t fight this tooth-and-nail, that the Left may well succeed in destroying societal norms and viciously savage the youth even more than today.

But I’m willing to be persuaded: how do you see with working on a practical level, recognizing that not everyone operates on Christian principles?

I agree with that statement.

Get the state out of the marriage business.
