" Although some people think that marriage is only a contract for society, it's a religious transformation between man and woman to "make them into one." .
Gay marriage has become a huge issue in the political world, and there are many different opinions being thrown around. Legislators throughout the nation trying to prevent the recognition of "gay marriage" contracted in other states obviously think so. They have introduced legislation that would grant official recognition only to marriages between "a man and a woman." Legislation representing this argument has already passed in South Dakota and Utah and may become law in 17 other states, including Maryland, in the next few months. Those who are against this controversy stand up for what they believe in, and they converse their views. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has told his top legal official to act against the city of San Francisco for allowing gay marriages. He ordered the state's attorney general to take immediate steps to get a court ruling against the same-sex weddings. Mr. Schwarzenegger said they represented "an imminent risk to civil order". Hours after Friday's court hearing, Mr. Schwarzenegger wrote to the state's attorney general, Bill Lockyero. "Our civilized society and legal system is based upon a respect for and adherence to the rule of law. The city and county of San Francisco's unfortunate choice to disregard state law and grant marriage certificates to gay couples directly undermines this fundamental guarantee. Because the city and county of San Francisco's actions are directly contrary to state law and present an imminent risk to civil order, I hereby direct you to take immediate steps to obtain a definitive judicial resolution of this controversy." Secondly, Hillary Rodham Clinton said on a campaign swing through New York on Monday that while she favors full benefits for gay and lesbian couples, marriage is an institution that should be restricted to opposite sex couples.
