So? Not everyone plays by the same book. And not everyone cares about the definitions Jesus used. Sure, it's romantic to say that, but I know for a fact that the list Jerr cited is abridged... Is this equal treatment? No. Or perhaps you're suggesting that all marriages be reduced to those three points?
(Come to think of it, that idea is not without merit, but everyone is entitled to legal protections.)
