Well I wasn't implying that the law would end any actions. I was just saying that it could set a bad precedent. What if a person wanted to legally marry their sister? What if they wanted to marry an animal? How can you tell those people "no" when they could simply say, "well, there is no real definition of marriage under the eyes of the law...."

So it's not that the law would keep people from being with each other. To me, it's more about setting a definite boundary and definition once and for all in order to keep from having to hash it out over and over and over again anytime someone has a different idea of who or what they should be allowed to legally marry.
