Mississippi man Chris Sevier wants to marry computer, joins polygamists to sue
A Mississippi man, Chris Sevier, self-described as a “machinist,” has joined with polygamists to file a federal lawsuit that same-sex “marriage” is part of the religion of secular humanism, and since it is of a religious nature, the state has no right to recognize it over other faith-based “marriages” such as polygamy, zoophilia, and machinism.”
If gay marriage is ok, that two men or two women can have a recognized marriage, sanctioned by the government, then this represents a religious recognition, a clear violation of the Constitution’s Establishment clause.

“Gay marriage is not secular,” Sevier said. “Just like polygamy, zoophilia, machinism, and other forms of perspective marriage are also not secular. All forms of parody marriage are equally part of the religion of secular humanism.”
By sanctioning same-sex “marriage,” the suit says, the courts overstepped their constitutional bounds by favoring one religious view over another.
Either homosexual “marriage” is unconstitutional and the state has no right to recognize it, or homosexual “marriage” should be accepted along with other marriage beliefs, such as polygamy.
Sevier joined the lawsuit when his county clerk would not recognize his “marriage” with a computer.
The lawsuit filed against Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant, Attorney General Jim Hood, and Pontotoc Circuit Clerk Melinda Nowicki seeks to persuade the U.S. District Court for the Northern District to either stop recognizing homosexual “marriages” or start recognizing all self-identified “marriages.”
“This case concerns only what states may do under the Constitution” regarding which types of marriages they can legally recognize, the filing explained. “The plaintiffs are … respectfully asking that this court uphold the Constitution.”
“This is a war for the viability of our Constitutional Republic itself,” the plaintiffs claim.
