Supreme Court decision
#15
AkaiOkami Wrote:Want to put this out to think about. The big picture gets missed. The court battles are not over gay marriage in the long run; repeat, long run! The long run goal is getting the Christian churches to hand over everything related to marriage; everything. When the government gets full control over marriage, a bureaucrat gets to decide who,what,when,where,why,how, etc, because, what are to two main things associated with marriage? Money and land! Elite bureaucrats, billionaire tech company owners, oil tycoons etc, will marry themselves and their cronies into massive wealth, like never seen before. They will all prevent competition by bring back the old feudal system. The poor/middle class will not be able to marry into wealth only out of it. Gay marriage is purely emotion based to get people stirred up so that it is an easy victory in the courts to further and painlessly gain more control. Take money and land out of the equation and then the government would not care about marriage at all.

I'm not following this logic. I don't see how making the opportunity to marry more inclusive gives the government more power over it than it has already.

Many of those that wanted the government to provide special benefits to married people, in order to encourage certain societal behaviors, are the same ones that argue the government shouldn't be involved.
