Well, I don't know if it's good news when a government begins defining (and limiting) inter-personal relationships. I would much prefer the government get out of the relationship business altogether. The Christian lifestyle is the responsibility of the Church, not the Government. If we do our jobs as Christians (without using the big stick of Government) the same ends would be achieved but without the animosity, anger and distrust. The order of achieving Christian lifestyles should be Preach --> Convert --> Conform. If we try conforming first we may never get the opportunity to do the other two. This is, of course, more difficult than legislating conformity - but that just leads me to believe that it is the right way.
