[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 73003074, member: 123415"] It precisely has to do with preferential treatment. Worded more succinctly, far-right Christians were upset when US government laws were altered and no longer reflected the laws laid out in their preferred religious text. Now, I would say that the easy solution to this is just to get rid of licensed marriage (and the legal benefits that go with it altogether) and let's not have the government involved in relationships at all. However, most folks in the traditional marriage camp can't seem to genuine when they recommend that considering that most of them supported DOMA. Really? People didn't care? Is that why there were folks referring to is as a "war on Christmas"?
