They deserve rights, but the real problem is that the government has the authority to deem what is and is not marriage.

Marriage is a religious ceremony, and nothing more or less. Therefore, the government does not have the authority to utilize it both against people that would desire religiously-defined marriage to either be enforced, or to enforce alternate views of marriage on the religious.

I agree actually. I would prefer that marriage had no legal recognition at all, only some form of universal civil union. Marriage would be the ceremony rather than the legal concept.

I fully agree with you guys.
