do not really know, not in a sense where i can put my Finger on a paragraph or an article.

i guess marriage was done by the church, at the church back in the old times, and not at the town hall / mairie / rathaus.
Therefor Marriage, even though today done in both variants; the official ceremoniy and the optional religious ceremony if desired has, to my mind, its roots in religion.

Gustav, you have it backwards.
If you trawl back to the last major gay marriage topic Haplo kindly produced a link which unfortunately for him destroyed that line of arguement
The early church in rome started getting in on the marriage business which was a civil/governmental matter.
At the end of the day marriage is what it always has been, simply a business contract.

That is what a history book says.
