If you wanted to avoid parroting others and still felt the need to add your two cents you might want to instead point out that the government I was initially talking about is the federal government since I had already mentioned the first amendment from the US Constitution. You might then say that I had only mentioned state governments when Ila brought up the civil side of marriage, and that once state governments were brought up I would clarify further statements by distinguishing federal governments from state governments.
