government should stay out of the marriage business

[Don Quixote]

i advocate that government should stay out of the marriage business and limit itself to civil unions which would be available to two or more consenting adults and would provide the restrictions and benefits now applied to marriages, but would call them civil unions and leave 'marriage' to those organizations that wish to 'marry' people

Don, I don't think there is any confusion. Some people, like You, Damo, Maineman, and myself, want to fundamentally solve this problem through comprehensive Civil Union legislation. Others (extremists) don't want to solve the problem because the issue is too important politically.

Oh politicians do exploit extremism, that is certainly true with a host of issues, and on both sides of the coin. But, as of now, politicians do not hold empirical power in America, we still elect them, we still send them packing.

True. Corporations are the ones holding empirical power.
