My wife and I are legally married in the state of California. We were married by a Buddhist Lama with our entire community present.
The Buddhist monastery has in no way been injured due to our marriage. It's been strengthened.
And as I have said hundreds of times before, if your church or religious institution is willing to marry you then I am all for it.
What I do not want to do is open the door for the activists that will take advantage of the term marriage and insist that churches marry homosexual couples. If a church is willing to do so, then more power to it, but I will be against any forced compliance.

That won't happen. There are two stages in marrying. For people who want ceremonies they get the ceremony AFTER the license. So in fact, it is the STATE that is marrying them.
I am an activist. I am who you fear.
I am telling you I could care less about what the Churches do.
Then why do you keep saying Immie is against equality when his only concern is keeping Church and State separate ?
