The contract, which is what it is, was then between a man and a woman and the IRS with a large portion of lawyers thrown in for spice. The contract has become nothing more than a bad joke played to add another revenue source to the economy and in effect no more than just another money grab. Therefor i see no reason why homosexuals should be allowed to evade paying their share as the rest of you married suckers do. Yes I said suckers, but a more appropriate term would be "marks" .god was taken out of the equation by man. i agree. but god was also put there by man. before god people still got married. still made a covenant to each other. then came baby jesus and people said i know lets force the people to get married in church. lets say that they can only be married in the eyes of god. before that it was the eyes of other gods.
wikkens did it in the forest. they did it that way because no god like jc was available. the blessed the earth with the marriage and the marriage with the earth. the marriage gives both parties certain property rights, certain benefit rights re retirement benefits, rights such as the passing on of wealth to a partner. the right to pass property on. whether married under the eyes of god or not the irs will always take it's slice. even 2000 yrs ago the irs did that benny.
