Fine...all civil marriages can be called civil unions....just religious unions can be called marriage......and let's take the time to change all the statutes, laws, etc to reflect the term "civil union", replacing the word "marriage" on all civil documents.
Nope. Traditional marriages would still be designated as always, with same-sex contracts of a similar nature officially labeled "civil union." All the same rights and protections guaranteed under law. Satisfied?
How about opposite-sex couples be restricted to civil unions while same-sex couples be allowed to marry? That way, Conservatives can still be equal but separate from gays.
many liberals are involved in opposite sex marriages, what would you do with them?
