Personally, I would prefer that government leave the whole business of the word marriage to the religious and rename the civil bond something else besides civil unions... There is too much hurt embedded in this title after years of gays being relegated to this separate but 'equal' institution. This would be a win-win situation. Not only would all people be enfranchised in the rights that come along with the civil bond, but all people would be able to marry - as there are some churches that will perform gay marriages. The only problem with this is that those who oppose marriage for gays also oppose any legal recognition for their couples.
