Abstract
La discusión que se planteó en Centroeuropa acerca de la conveniencia de mantener la obligatoriedad del «primado» del matrimonio civil, ofrece nuevas reflexiones sobre la relación entre la forma del matrimonio y sus elementos estructuradores básicos, como la heterosexualidad. Del estudio de las leyes de matrimonio civil de Austria se concluye que para el respeto de las formas religiosas de celebración del matrimonio parece mejor la fundamentación en la libertad religiosa de los contrayentes que en la vertiente institucional. La doctrina de Lutero considera el matrimonio una cuestión civil, por ello los fieles evangélicos aceptan el régimen matrimonial establecido por la autoridad secular, si se respetan los elementos del matrimonio natural. El Derecho civil alemán no ha llama a las uniones homosexuales matrimonio. Si la normativa civil del matrimonio se aparta de los elementos comunes con el matrimonio natural, los ciudadanos evangélico-luteranos se verán obligados a influir más eficazmente en el régimen del matrimonio civil o a impulsar el cambio hacia un sistema de matrimonio electivo.

From the study of civil marriage laws of Austria, it is concluded that for the respect of the religious forms of celebration of marriage it seems better the foundation in religious liberty of the contracting parties than in the institutional point of view. Luther’s doctrine considers marriage a civil question. The evangelicals accept the marriage regulations established by the secular authority if the elements of natural marriage are respected. German civil law has not called to homosexual marriages. If the civil norms of marriage separate from the common elements of natural marriage, the Lutheran evangelicals will be obliged to influence more efficiently in the rules of civil marriage or impel a change towards a system of elective marriage.
