In my previous post, rebutting the Libertarian Party of MN’s position on same sex marriage, I mention that I have written about why the government can’t really get out of the marriage business. It is interesting to me how common this argument has become. I think lots of people just wish this whole topic would go away, and they hope that privatizing marriage will somehow make that possible. Rather than restating all my arguments, I’m going to repost and relink to some of my articles. Suffice to say, that I don’t think the argument for privatizing marriage works.
Here is one called, Privatizing Marriage is Not the Answer to the Same Sex Marriage Debate. Comment away!
