Then you could say same sex marriages are also based on science, in that they have -100% chance of healthy reproduction, compared to consanguinities 30% or so.

Paedophile --- children can't consent

What has consent got to do with it? Kids were married off in other cultures by their parents.

polygamist --- that's not a "couple"

Yes it is. Polygamy includes multiple couples inclusively. Say a man marries one woman, then another, then another. He makes a couple with each of the women individually. The women don't marry each other. You're precluding a man from marrying a woman he loves simply because he's already married to someone else. That's discrimination against couples that love each other, want to be together, and even procreate with all the legal and financial benefits.
Polygamy has worked wonderfully throughout history.

And the jews can worship in church. And, in Virginia, before Loving v. VA was overturned, blacks could marry --- they just couldn't marry whites.

Jews can worship in a church. Any building can be used as a synagogue, temple or church.
The black/white distinction makes a distinction based on color. Distinctions now are based on gender, but you would have distinctions based on sexual preference. So that only homosexual men can marry each other.
Marriage doesn't equal happiness or love. Love and marriage are different, and you can have one without the other.
Anyway I'm tired of this topic. I think this will be my last reply.
