The trouble is that ingrained expectations factor into that. Can you say that you’d feel the same way if you’d grown up in a world where marriage is strictly held as a religious institution and not a legal one?
My point here is that making marriage a legal matter is what makes it vulnerable. If it was a matter of religion alone, it would be equally protected under freedom of religion, but holding it as a legal entity creates expectations of it, expectations that may conflict with its intent.
