Someone smarter than me came up with a decent solution for this gay marriage thing...

...if religious people want to claim marriage for themselves, then they can have it. The word "marriage" will cease to have any legal meaning.

It will be entirely replaced by the concept of "civil unions", or hopefully something a little snappier.

If, as a religious zealot, you choose not to accept that civilly unioned Bob and Frank are "married", then fine. Take your word and cram it up your tight ass.

The rest of the civilized world will simply accept that Bob and Frank have now gained certain legal rights and responsibilites, and the religious freaks can go back to calling a penis a "peepee" or whatever gets them thru the day.

OK, that's solved. What's next?

Sounds logical, which means it'll never happen.

But then the gays are like "WTF we want marriage, too."

The smart people will be like "You're getting marriage, it's just not called marriage."

And then the gays are like "WTF we want marriage, too."

The stupidity works both ways, unfortunately.

Then they can take that up with their church, but it's no longer a government issue. The government wouldn't be able to say who is married any more than I could successfully petition my Congressman for a bar mitzvah. It's out of his hands.

Mr. K: [solution]

OK, I'm not going to make a habit of posting about stupid political bullshit, but this is exactly the solution I've been proposing to people (and with relative success).

At first I was like "What? People are actually fucking fighting to keep this illegal?" But after casually talking to a few folks around my building, I was reminded that the vast majority of people are less logical than me. A friend of mine was like "Gay marriage man, that's just...man that's FUCKED up! That's so wrong man, it totally messes with the meaning of marriage."

"So, uh. What if gay people could still be legally bound together, but it wasn't called marriage?"

"Oh yeah, that's fine. But marriage is a man and a woman, dude. One penis, one vagina. It's sacred, furreals."

"Uh, yeah."

I think legislators will eventually figure out the civil union thing and all will be well.

Not necessarily all religious people are really fighting to keep it from happening. Even if they disagree, some (such as myself) won't stop someone else from getting married just because it contradicts my personal beliefs. It's not for me to say.

"civil unions", or hopefully something a little snappier.

I think a lot hinges on this.

A problem with your, "then they can take it up with their church" reply to PA is that not all gays (and for that matter, non-gays) who still want the word "marriage" want it because of their religion. It's just part of the language and culture.

What Toby said - it's a cultural thing. They want to get married because that's what you do with people. Getting a civil union doesn't have the same meaning, so that's not their goal...

Well, that's about to change.

We'll run several high-profile 15-minute long ads featuring lovable celebrity person Tom Hanks and he will explain the new rules to everyone and they will just have to accept it or he will go Normandy on their asses.

Also Oprah will hug everyone and pat them on the back and tell them it's OK.

Also I propose replacing the term "marriage" with "fuckbind".

Because we have to keep the really pointless issue smokescreen up until cfalcon learns how to make a point in less than 1000 words.

Speaking of issues, how 'bout that defecit? 7 trillion dollars... whew.

Marriage under the church can not give them the same legal rights that marriage under the government can.

It is not only about the fucking word. And you can still have a really big cultural ceremony and form a civil union. So it is not about the ceremony.

Maybe Bush can just stick to his administration policy and just change the word civil union to marriage and marriage into civil union. But now you get benefits under a civil union.

Err, a church wouldn't necessarily have to sanction marriage. You could have a hippie do it, or a priest of the Church of Darwin.

Or you could just let the faggots shack up and fuck what the churches think. Who gives a shit what the majority thinks anyway? About a third of them think we found WMD in Iraq for Christ's sake.

This whole thing is like interracial marriage; the judiciary is going to slap some sense into everyone and twenty years down the line people are going to look back and think 'What the fuck was up with that'.

I actually saw some Republican idiot the other day, right there on the teevee, say that the judicial branch of the government had no right to interpret the Constitution...
