It's so God damn easy I don't get why no one thought of this yet. I posted this earlier a few months back but I think it was ignored. Before you start flaming me for my warped view of reality, at least read the whole thing
Give Civil Unions the same benefits as Marriage, and let Heterosexual couples be allowed to have Civil Unions. That would eliminate any "Separate but Equal" bullshit out of the water. But wait, there's more! Legalize Gay Marriage across the country, but let individual churches choose whether or not to accept the marriages. If Gay couples really wanted marriage they should have no problem finding a small local church to hold their wedding, and if they cant find a church to approve of it, there is always a Government equivalent with the same benefits.
Bam! Boom! Solved. Where's my medal?

20 Replies in this Sub-ThreadWhy would anybody pick Civil Unions over Marriages? Why not just stop being assholes and let Gay people get married? Like -blam!- it's not a big -blam!-ing deal just stop being bigots.

You see, most people including Gay Couples would WANT to have the ceremony, and believe it or not there are gay people out there that are religious. However, that shouldn't mean the churches have to bend how they do things for some random couple that walks in. Not when I have this bill that says the government can do the same thing! I'm making the choice between marriage and civil unions the same as choosing between McDonald's and Burger King. CrazzySnipe you be busting my chode. Can I call you chode bustah? Cause you're busting my chode.

I didn't say you couldn't have the ceremony, I'm saying your reasoning for Civil Unions existing makes no sense.
