State shouldn’t govern marriage

Marriage is an institution of Jehovah for procreation. One man and one woman. They become one flesh.

The Constitution affirms the separation of church and state. The First Amendment says Congress cannot regulate religion. If Congress can’t do it, the state can’t do it.

See Genesis 2:24: About 6,000 years ago, God gave man the marriage laws. They take precedence over state and federal laws. The state doesn’t have the right to change the laws of church, Bible or Jehovah God’s law of one man and one woman, not two people of the same sex.

What will people want to marry next, their pets or children, or graven images or what?
