Now think abou it... You support gay marriage, I am opposed to gay marriage. We're never going to see eye-to-eye on this. You have your argument, I have my argument, and we do not agree at all.... yet, here I've proposed something you can live with and I can live with. Neither of us have to concede our arguments regarding gay marriage, you are free to continue supporting it and I am free to continue opposing it. But from the perspective of government, they are taken out of the argument completely. Gay couples get what they want. Religious people get what they want. Government is no longer dictating this.
And again Boss- I have no idea with the concept.
If you can implement your plan before same gender marriage is legal in all 50 states, I would be fine with that.
I think that the majority of the same people who oppose same gender marriage- AND the majority of people who support same gender marriage would oppose your plan.
Far from everyone getting what they want- I think both sides would feel cheated. Not that that bothers me- but it will prevent your plan from execution.
