Interesting point zk. And something I thought of a while ago and forgot until now. Yeah gays should be able to put their own label on a state-sanctioned union between two of the same sex.
The biblical view disturbs me just as much as abortion and womens rights. If we stood back and thought of it as human rights and not just marriage or womens rights maybe gays and the unborn(who have acquired consciousness), would all be given equal protection.
