Marriage, as a government-based legal institution, is a legal contract that merges your finances and assets in a meaningful way and gives the other person primary control over your personal health and family manners if you have children. Your opinion of marriage as a religious institution is irrelevant to Marriage as a government-based legal institution. They aren't the same thing, and while I don't think religious leaders should be forced to perform ceremonies they aren't comfortable with- on a LEGAL level, as U.S. citizens, two people who want to enter a marriage contract together is a RIGHT and none of your business. Your opinion does not negate facts.
