Your local code must be different because the Indiana Code for marriage doesn't mention anything about Adam and Eve, the Bible, or any such requirement to keep marriage laws biblically acceptable.
My point was that its the same thing, and based on that. Why would they create a law and say "this law is based on the bible: "? Lets not get silly. Law says that marriage is between a man and a woman. The people that founded this country were christians, and for the most part based their laws on those beliefs. Especially marriage.
so essentially what you're saying is forget what Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists, Scientists and the rest of the denominations want, just do what the Christians want, right?
This is not 1776. This country is not made up of 100% Christians. Stop trying to evangelize your beliefs on others forcefully. This is what gave Christianity a bad rap during the Inquisition and Crusades.
Since when are these other religions not allowed to vote?
