"You read a lot today about same-sex marriage and the fight to legislate its approval via Rule of Law. What I don’t understand, is what does Rule of Law have to do with it anyway? Couples of all stripes, same sex or otherwise, are going to cohabitate regardless of what the law says. Sure, there are laws still on the books that prohibit cohabitation of unmarried couples, but they haven’t been enforced in, oh, about a hundred years, and only spottily so even then. Yet still, the gay marriage proponents - who ordinarily laugh at hoary old Rule of Law - continue to lust after a rubber-stamp approval from it on this particular issue, as if it matters. It doesn’t.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to – as Ron Paul suggests - divorce (chuckle) marriage from state sanction, and leave it solely up to the religious bodies? Those like-minded individuals who seek affirmation for their union could still be sanctioned by the religious institution of their choice, i.e., a church, synagogue, or temple, etc.
It would take the political pathos out of the equation. The only real problem I see is the state is cheated out of its licensing fees. I guess they could make up for it by arbitrarily raising some other fine or fee. They excel at that.
Bada-bing. Everyone wins."
