    I am not suggesting that any same gender sexual relationship would endanger anyone else's rights more than any traditional one. Only that this is the only time I think a government should have a mandate to step in and do anything. Of course this issue of the government granting rights not enumerated in the Constitution is apparently up to the voters in our local governments in the US, but if I were the only voter it would not happen. My personal view on the matter is that the government (for both my personal view of the immorality of homosexual relations and my personal view of the role of government) should not be giving such a relationship a title of marriage
