In the Roman Times, gay sex was very prevalent, and how does one create a larger flock? Controlling sex and making folks procreate to increase the pool for the religion.
What is even funnier if you look at the attempt translations from cough 80 generations of humanity some of the sayings implied about homosexuality may not even be. It may all about being "soft" on sexuality, which may imply cheating and not honor enthaustic consent between partners.
The reality is the only ones that might be able to do the translation are the Benedictine Monks who may still have the original salvaged scrolls from the Plague Days (yes no 2020s ...)

I have half joked about this in the past. Stating marriages in religious ceremonies don't count for civil purposes. They can for their religious purposes, but maybe they would need to actually do it "twice". Once with the state/federal government, and once with the religion.
Can you imagine if part of the ceremony is to informal that this the bonding of two human beings man and man, woman and woman, and all of that good stuff. If they agree, then sweet married you be!
