"But what does need to be acknowledged is the state because marriage is a legal concept between two people."
Ah, no, marriage was not just a concept but an important practice way before any legal system existed. You know, even Hammurabi in his codex eighteen centuries BC described marriage as a long-established institution of which he merely provided in writing some first legal definitions and rules.
But what would one expect from an average streamer spewing false platitudes? Education? Nah...
Typical attitude, in an age where nothing is actually held sacred. "It's all about government and taxes, you see." At least he's clear that he thinks religions shouldn't be forced to perform weddings they don't agree with, but even that is short-sighted, given how interested modern socialist governments are in forcing religions to recognize whatever the state wants them to.
asmongler exists somewhere between trying to appear to be the "enlightened centrist" and being a stooge for one of the biggest "talent agencies" out there.
No question about the children, but that is under the question: Under what circumstances ought people be allowed to adopt.
"How can adults form legally-recognized family units" is the one I am looking at.
This was btw, the goal pro-social lesbians and gays were working on back in the early 90s, but they lost out to the worst gay degenerates, SJW wahman, and gamma libertarian* coalition.

He's a center-left libertarian type that occasionally says based things. He's wrong here, but this is both predictable and not shocking.

He has a popular channel: It doesn't make him an expert on everything.
I don't like him - he loves using "Jesus" and "Christ" as expletives.
Just my personal opinion. I don't listen to anything he says.
I subscribe to Jesus view on it so asmond is wrong.
Remind me where in the Bible Jesus commented on gay marriage?
The Bible says very clearly that homosexual practices are an abomination to God
I was asking about Jesus. Where does the New Testament assert this?
Romans 1:27 for example. Don't you believe in the Bible?

This guy doesn't shower.
Legal adoption of adults to create families is fine. No need to fuss about the sex or even the number.
And yes, they're subordinate to marriage. Which in Western Christendom is just two people, one of each sex.
And yes, if a gay wants to marry a lesbian, it's still a marriage.
Whoops.
Maybe, but some studies show that a kid would grow better with a man and a woman, so probably it would matter too
Even Dolce and Gabbana (gay men) supported this idea, wanting to raise kids with women
