Seems like government interfering with church matters. Government benefits for couples should be 100% independent of religious ceremonies no exceptions.

You don't have to have a religious ceremony to be married and it doesn't matter what kind of religious ceremony you use to be married so gov benefits are 100% independent of religious ceremonies already.

Maybe here in the east it isn't. But go out west, and they care very much about water, who has it, and where it goes.

*confuses licensing with permission*

How is operating a motor vehicle, both the driving by the individual and actually using public roadways with the vehicle itself, without proper licensing being illegal and punishable by fines and maybe jail time not effectively requiring government permission to do so?

Same with being married. Without a license, you enjoy none of the legal benefits of marriage. The government says that you're not married until we sign off on it, kthnxbai citizen.

I'm not a libertarian and I actually think the regulation and rule of law is an ok thing in general since there are often plenty of good reasons for it. Like building codes and zoning laws.

If that was true why are gays pushing for marriage from the federal government? I don't believe you.

Permission implies that the government will deny a marriage or fishing license instead of just giving them away with no scrutiny for a small fee.

Age or parental permission is a hard requirement for a marriage license. When my father married my mother, he was only 20 and the state required an age of 21, so his parents had to go to the courthouse and fill out paperwork before the government would grant the license.

Sporting licenses like fishing, hunting, boating, etc often require safety courses and have age restrictions.

Money itself is a condition that must be met before approval.

License is a synonym of permission. "I grant you license," is an archaic way of saying "I give you permission."

You can do any of these things without the license of the government, but you are subject to punishment because you do not have permission to be doing them.

If I recall correctly, the rainwater thing became an issue when some dude in Colorado basically damned off huge part of his own property to create lakes and populated them with fish and stuff. AFAIK it's not blatantly illegal to catch rainwater in a barrel.

Thanks to all those that showed up to Morgan's 3rd birthday party. It's always nice seeing who your true friends are. To those that couldn't make it, don't expect my family to come to your functions (Except you Tina, I know you were ill and had a legitimate excuse for not showing up). :)
