I say, fine, if that's what the people want (and that is, apparently, what the people want). I think that by far the best solution, then, is getting rid of all marriage licenses, and giving out solely civil union licenses that would be equal in both same-sex and opposite-sex relationships in the eyes of the law, which is the most important thing to me. If you wish to get married, then you can have that done in your own church in your respective religious tradition, but having it done there does not effect your legal status or standing in the eyes of the law.
Agree. The problem is that government got involved into mariages in the first place.
