This.

Even if it would work for the majority of people.... it wouldn't for a few who would just con their partners and then leave them penniless, homeless and with children to take care of.
Marriage, as a social contract overseen by the government, provides some assurances to both parties.

Marriage, as a religious contract, is dumb.
