DOMA - why?

I thrive and greatly appreciate logic. This whole DOMA - Defense of Marriage Act - thing has been bouncing around inside my head for a few days now. Why did it take me a few days to come to this realization?

What's the non-religious reason for DOMA? I'm missing that "logic" point. I can't resolve the dichotomy of "separation of church and state" and DOMA. I also don't fathom why marriage needs to be "defended" by the Federal government and why we're expending Federal resources on that "defense".

I have some very religious friends who I respect and deeply appreciate and don't mean to offend, but I just don't get it.
