80. Well, since our laws have their bases in religion, the law kinda stole the word...
They had it first. I'm just suggesting that we give it back to eliminate the grey areas.

The legal rights and responsibilities granted by today's "marriage" should have nothing to do with religion. I think it would be beneficial to stop using religion's word to define a legal status.
