Why place a non-severability clause in something as basic and ordinary as marriage? You don't see a non-severability clause in the world of straight marriage do you? That means that if any part of this law is deemed to be unlawful or is challenged in a court and the court rules in favor of the challenge, then ALL OF THIS MARRIAGE ACT IS VOID.

Yeah, that is frightening. I can definitely see the bigot brigade trying to use that loophole to attack same-sex marriage.
