To marry, Or not To Marry????

What is marriage? In my eyes marriage, is a piece of paper that you pay for. That someone who thinks their high and mighty gives you saying that you have rights over the other person's possessions. Not to mention that marriage goes way back to the time where no one could believe much else except the bible and this says the union between men and women.
We all know that even if we don't agree with it or can't stand the thought of it there are those that choose to live an alternative lifestyle and should be able to make any decision that works for them and fits who they are.
I mean here I am a 28 year old women who has been with my boyfriend for 81/2 years and we have 2 children and live together. Why should we get married? There is no reason other than the fact that this is what people have come to expect and the way the bible and all those people still living in the past believe it should be done. I remember the looks I would get when people asked me with my first child if I was getting married and I said no what is the point! My kids are just as cared for taken care of and loved as any other kids I know and it does not dictate who my kids are or who they will become . I believe that this is the same for families living alternative lifestyles, but in the same breathe if someone who chooses to live a life of marriage should have to the opportunity. Who gives these asses in congress and such ya know the ignorant ones that get divorced or sleep with there secretary's(also not aloud in the holy land)the right to say okay you can have a civil union but the "Marriage" word is sacred and saved for those who aren't sinners. well fuck them and all the power to anyone who is human and wants to get married..... I mean there are people who marry there dogs for christ sakes.....
