It is a little strange that the religious conservatives and the gay community both very much want government involvement in their intimate personal lives.
That
is strange. It would never have occurred to me that that is true of either group. Perhaps we have different interpretations of what the legal institution of marriage entails. I know quite a few married couples for example, who do not engage in "personal intimacy". I also know quite a few single people who have intimate relationships. What, in your opinion, does intimacy have to do with "marriage" in the legal sense, and in what ways do religious conservatives and "the gay community" very much want the government involved?
