AFAIK, you can be legally married, if you're married by a mayor or judge or something, but you're not married in the eyes of the church... thus, as far as many religions are concerned, you're not married.
Is it possible to be religiously married, without being legally married? That is, have a church wedding, satisfy all the relatives present, satisfy God or whatever you believe in, but not be legally married??
The only reason I'm asking, is I was thinking about the "marriage penalty." If there was some loophole in the system, you could get married, without having to file taxes as "married."
