This is subject that can go many ways, especially since most views on this are based on opinion. Marriage was created by religion so that if one were to make the choice to commit, or be forced into by law, whether it be the families law or the societies laws, they would have to stay in that commitment. Marriage is not necessarily a way to procreate, for humans were able to do that even before marriage became apart of human traditions. Love is love, inside or outside of marriage, and if a homosexual couple wants to be not only spiritually connected to each other but also legally attached, then they should have that right. The bonds of marital status are more of a conventional thing than they are a religious thing. Especially in this day and age when marriage is consistently used in a manipulative way. If homosexuals want to be married, let them, because even if they aren't married they will still love each other.
