I believe they should be able to have a union akin to marriage, but not called marriage. I have no problem with gay people.

I don't think you do have a problem with homosexuals.
My question is simply why should the law recognize a two-tier "seperate but equal" system of marriage/civil unions rather than supporting civil unions for all people and allowing individual churches to accept whatever they want as marriages... in other words, make marriage a religious issue not upheld by the state and civil union the phrase used for all state-recognized "marriage"?
There were a few other questions two, but this one is the most important.
