This is true...BUT, how likely are you to find a 'justice of the peace' that knows the ways of each individual religion?....Most other religions consider 'marriage' to be sacred, and only allow those among themselves to perform these ceremonies...And while the ceremonies ARE performed, all the time in this country, they are NOT recognized as legitimate...That's the problem I'm having with it...
To be perfectly honest...I'm not really 'religious'...I have my own beliefs but, I'm not taking anyone's 'side'
For me, this question isn't even about RELIGION.......It's really only to address the blatant HYPOCRISY of it all........It's bullshit...
