The church should be involved in a celebration, not the creation of a legal document.
How about we ALL get civil unions for the sake of our governmental/legal needs.
Marriage is for male/female.
How about a new legal term - mergeage for unions other than male/female.
It sounds similar, and it portrays the meaning well enough.
What do you think?
But in addition to this, we must also satisfy the wants of gay and lesbian couples who don't want their relationship to be called something different because it is not equal treatment to have your relationship called something else.
To the church, you can be "married."
To the gov't, "(civilly) unionized."
because it is not reality
In just the last century marriage has meant two people of the same race (till that was changed), two people who had never been married before (till that was changed) and one man with several women (still does in some countries).
And "separate but equal" has NEVER been truly equal in this country.
What exactly makes you think you're so much better than your gay neighbors that they should have to support you with their unequal taxes and Social Security benefits?
I simply disagree that a union between two people of the same sex should be called a marriage.
It's impossible to do a full explanation in 500 characters
Frankly, I don't think the government should have ANYTHING to do with what happens in anyones bedroom.
What you or anyone else does there is between you and God (if you have any beliefs) - NOTE: I am saying this with a smile, not a tone......
-- Of course you do. You think you deserve rights that you want to deny to your neighbors.
"I simply disagree that a union between two people of the same sex should be called a marriage."
-- Called a marriage by whom? Your neighbor? My pastor? Why is it any of your business what words these people use?
"I don't think the government should have ANYTHING to do with what happens in anyones bedroom."
-- Marriage rights are not about that and you know it.
