Gays are not asking to be married in the eyes of God. The Constitution basicaly says there should be no endorsement of religion. Do you really think marriage between any two people by a state has anything to do with what God had in mind? The issue here isn't wanting to be married in the eyes of God, rather be married in the eyes of the state tax, etc. The reaons for seperation of church and state is because though the leaders of the nation may be of a certain religion, many of the people of nation my not. The interest of the nation may not always be the interest of God, this is because there are many different ways people see God in the US.
