OK...I see I'm going to be the guy who gets to take his socks off and stomp on the broken glass...
Keep in mind that I believe the term "marriage" in the eyes of the state is NOT a marriage at all, but a contract...I find it severly hypocritical that many couples include a marriage ceremony in a religious institution that also includes a state contract, but divorce is ONLY through the state and not a part of the same religious institution that married them in the first place...
How conveeeeenient...
"Marriage" is much different than that of any "union" of same-sex couples in that mating and copulation is never existent in the latter...
If people are using the term "marriage" in the state aspect of a contract, I'm for it...
But I would never call it marriage..."Civil unions" is pretty generic, and I'd think another term would be used, but I'm not against the term itself...
Bur definitely not "marriage"...Calling a dog's bark a "meow" doesn't make it a "meow"...It's nothing more than a way to make something that is not a social norm...a social norm...
I will now stand behind bulletproof glass and await rebuttals...
