I think the idea of seperating "marraige" and "union" is a really good one. I was raised to believe that "marriage" is the sacrament a man and a woman commit with God. I like to tease my parents that they aren't really married because they got married by a Justice of the Peace, not a priest. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with gay unions. I think all the states should just rename it to a "Civil Union License" or a "Partnership License" and let any human beings over the age of consent get one. That way people who want to be married in a church can be, and people who want to be partners can be.
I personally am really fed up with the attitudes of some people opposed to this. I just don't like the idea that you want to dictate what other people do in their homes. God doesn't tell you to tell other people what to do in the bedroom, so why are you?
