At the risk of completely derailing this topic, the government should just strike the word "marriage" altogether and call everything a union. Let people decide on their own what a "marriage" is, and pull the rug right out from under the lobby's pushing the definition of a word as a major politial issue in a nation that has far, far, far more important political crises to deal with.

I don't agree with catering to the left like that. Let them call their "entaglements" 'civil unions' and any opposite sex couple who wants to get married and keep the term 'marriage' can do so. So often solutions, to what seem like major problems, are actually quite simple. All this pandering to people is ridiculous, and I've about had enough.
