Their demand to use the word marriage is what causes me to belive they are trying to force acceptance to their relationship. |
Looking at how everyone has responded to this, it looks like marriage is a church function and a civil union is a government function. If that's the case why not go with it, if they can find a church willing to perform the service they're married, if they go to the courthouse then they have a union?
