Um, no, Marriage is many thousands of rights provided to a couple by the US Government at the State.  Church can do what they want, but the government can not discrimatate against someone because of their gender.  And not giving someone the right to vote, hold a job, or marry the person they love is against the values of the USA.

Government doesn't make laws on love. First of all love is chemical reaction in the brain that is predetermined to happen just like everything you do. Don't use words that don't exist in reality because it will be emotional debate instead of a rational one.

How is marriage a right? Who makes it a right? Isn't that just your subjective opinion?

Marriage for love is both a novel and relatively modern concept, and the Christian aversion to divorce is an oddity even compared to the other Abrahammic religions.
