I don't think I'd enjoy heterosexuality.
Marriage is both a religious and a civil institution. It may have once been only a religious institution but as soon as government became involved it added a different dimension to the institution. Here is the thing: religion has the right to discriminate...government does not. It's ruling doctrine is the Constitution/Charter which enshrines equality rights. It also should not legislate "separate but equal" types of institutions like civil unions because the very fact that it is separate makes it inherently unequal.
