I agree more with this mindset.. not because I'm against the idea of homosexuals being married within the church. I could care less what churches do, but it seems very impractical to expect the government to do something when the only reason the government has any say in marriage is for the purposes of taxation, returns, claims and exceptions included. Taxes are complicated. Marriage shouldn't be, but the two have to be conditionally coordinated. Because you can't expect a gay union to conceive children themselves, and plenty of people have enough volume to bitch about how awful it would be if a gay couple adopted a child and "twisted" him or her into a homosexual, the government can't really take an intelligent position on homosexuality. On the one hand, it can be called natural because it's had a place in human history for thousands of years. On the other hand, it can be called disgusting, perverse and completely unnatural because man and woman complement eachother so wonderfully.. whereas anything else seems a bit grotesque. But since I can't think like a queer, I have no idea what goes on in their heads.
