......for it being a part of the bible and religious texts in general - it was the fact that marriage was created to produce children to grow the society, army etc.

A fact? You think children wouldn't be produced without marriage? Do you believe in creationism?

It has little or no meaning in todays societies yet the legacy of the early "laws" exist.

Then we are not disagreeing, except perhaps in how actively the government should be involved in eliminating these legacy remnants that are no longer essential for establishing a power structure based on procreation and expansion.
