The ideal solution would be to have civil unions (secular activity) afforded the same rights a Marriage (religious activity). Currently they do not, which is part of the reason the courts in various jurisdictions are hearing these cases.
The different opinions (on this board) continue to butt heads about the benefits attributed one instituion or another offers society, but the fact remains Marriages are afforded rights/benefits that are not givin to Civil Unions. Standardize both and you'd remove the driving force for (most except the my vehment) Homosexual discontent. |
I would personally agree 100% with affording the benefits equally.
However, no one's rights are any different than anyone elses now, and I don't see that changing.
