NEW QUESTION: ABOLISH MARRIAGE--CIVIL UNIONS FOR ALL?

Some advocates across the political spectrum are making the radical case for separating the civil and religious dimensions of marriage entirely. Let religions keep the word "marriage," they say; the state should merely provide civil unions for all. Lawmakers in New York and Massachusetts have already proposed this move.

This radical proposal has won a surprising amount of support from religious believers who think the definition of marriage should be left to the churches; gay-rights supporters who want all couples to be treated equally; and some who believe it's the best way to prevent alternative family forms from being enshrined in law.
