Me too. I want my marriage recognized by both -- that's why I insisted we be married by a minister (dh wanted to be married by a judge and I said NO).

Yes, Crystal, they are against marriage licenses -- in fact in one of their articles he boasts how none of his children married with a marriage license -- just a convenant with the Lord. The only concern I have with that is if any of their daughters is ever abused or cheated on and decides to report spousal abuse or decides to divorce for Biblical reasons, they will most likely have no legal standing or protection (unless common law marriages are recognized in the state they live in -- WI does not recognize common-law marriage).
