I don't think it can be a marriage. The law calls it a "civil partnership". The word "marriage" has too much of the religious "holy matrimony" idea to it, I think. I'm all for civil partnership for gays and lesbians. It's only fair that they have full recognition of their relationship. Why should we prevent them from having a partnership? What blooming right have we got to do that?
Marriage has nothing to do with religion (religion may have claimed it in this country) . I'm not going to have a civil partnership just because im an atheist. So if gays want to get married , they get married.
