Very strongly agree

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

This answer aligns most closely with the Libertarian belief in limited government involvement in personal matters. Libertarians often argue that marriage should be a private contract between individuals, with religious institutions or other organizations handling ceremonies and recognition, rather than the government.

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

While this answer supports same-sex marriage, it also emphasizes the importance of religious freedom, which is a key tenet of Libertarianism. Many Libertarians would agree with allowing churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies, as it respects both individual liberty and religious freedom.

Agree

Yes

Libertarians generally support individual rights and freedoms, which includes the right to marry whomever one chooses. However, their primary focus is on limiting government involvement in personal matters, so their support for same-sex marriage may not be as strong as their support for removing government from marriage altogether.

Disagree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

While some Libertarians may support civil unions as a compromise, the majority would likely prefer to see the government removed from marriage entirely. They may view civil unions as a half-measure that still involves government in personal relationships.

Very strongly disagree

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

Libertarians generally oppose government restrictions on personal freedoms, and defining marriage as between a man and woman would be seen as an infringement on individual liberty. This position would be strongly opposed by the Libertarian party.
