| One point about the legalization of certain "marriages": If certain people cannot make a "marriage" (and the Bible sets forth these limitations) then the union is no marriage at all, regardless of what a magistrate calls it.
Examples:
2 men
2 women
human and non-human
a union within the bounds of consanguinity (incestuous unions)
any other union forbidden by the Word
These are simply not marriages, and no legalese will make them so.
