how about religious bans on marriage like Catholics must marry Catholics and Jews must marry Jews? There are also religious bans on divorced people marrying. Of course none of those bans have been made into law, just the gay marriage and polygamy laws. If the churches are allowed to make a ban on gay marriage into law, how much longer will it be before they attempt to make laws to ban divorce and marriage between people of different faiths? This has to be stopped now, just like keeping them from overturning Roe vs Wade. Because if they can do that, then the next thing that they will attempt will be laws banning birth control.
Now if people want to live their lives according to the rules set out by their faith and their churches, let them but please don't allow them to pass laws forcing the rest of us to do the same. This is why these laws banning gay marriage must be stopped and overturned.
