> Why does it have to be called “marriage”… they should be allowed to do their thing…and name it…, but a marriage is a man and a woman… call it a civil union or whatever… you cant call a honda a chevy or a truck a car… there are clear differences…the make up is different. This shouldnt be hard to understand. The fight should be that whatever name they use, is equal to that of the word marriage when it comes to civil liberties and the like. Fuckin people are redic. The majority of the American Human race finally idiotic.

Exactly.

People are beating a dead horse over semantics.

There is no world wide definition of marriage. It varies greatly. It would have made sense to call it something else to get the same legal status.
