Wanting a smaller, less intrusive government does not mean that the definition of marriage should be changed.

Indiana Code 31-11-11
As someone who was married in Indiana I know all about the marriage application. I also know that due to a mistake by a clerk that I almost got in trouble for falsifying a legal document, but was able to sort it out since I had the paperwork on hand.

The reason why Indiana did this that it knew that soon a bunch of people that only bother to do things the correct way is when it suits them was about to file a bunch of useless paperwork as a "protest".

Useless paper work costs money and Indiana decided to nip it in the bud so that they don't have to deal with the extra headaches. Now if you read the rest of the article you will notice that the Indiana legislators are thinking about adding a definition of marriage into the state constitution, SOOOO if the individuals who are upset by the ways things are right now and wants to change them, maybe they should fill out some paperwork addressed to their elected officials.

Prison Awaits Same-Sex Couples Who Try to Get Married in Indiana - NationalJournal.com
Unconstitutional. ACLU should just line up the people who get charged and be done with it when it is completely overturned.

States need to realize the MORE aggressive they combat same sex marriage, the MORE likely it will be found unconstitutional and most likely LEGAL in their state. Yes counter-intuitive to some but that is what will happen.

Such as, push people into a marriage to someone of their own gender? I missed where that is being pushed onto anyone. You got to choose your own spouse, didn't you? So did I. No pushing anything onto anyone.

No one is pushing you to marry someone of the same sex.

Homosexual "couples" cannot born children, it's too clear even mention that.

Interracial marriage has no nothing to do with same-sex marriage. The first one can produce children, second one not = one is natural, second is not. Dont mess it.

Ability to produce children is not a requirement to get married. In fact there are laws that some couples have to prove that they are incapable of producing children in order to be able to get married.

No one is pushing you to believe anything. I think smoking is unhealthy, but it is still legal. I think fast food is unhealthy, but it is still legal.

Grow a spine, ignore the things you find perverse. Pretending you're a victim isn't going to get you any sympathy. Nothing is being pushed onto you.

"Hey did you hear? Two dudes in the next town over got married?"

"Oh how awful! The Gayness is being pushed onto us!"
