You fucking christers are soooooo threatened by the idea of two people who love each other committing to their partners that the rest of us can only stand in stupefied amazement of your ignorance and stupidity.
Please, tell me, how, exactly, would it affect your marriage to your wife if my daughter marries another woman?
Or, better yet, go fuck yourself with a cactus.
I'm talking about government controlling the definition of marriage. When did I say I'm against two people committing themselves to each other? I don't believe homosexual relations are moral, but at the same time, I have no right to control other people's lives and to not love them. I think a lot of things people do are immoral. The reason I'm okay with civil unions is because I think it's an issue of equality under the law. Civil unions would give gays access to the same rights and privileges under the law as anyone else without redefining an institution that is sacred to many people. I think government should stay out of marriage. We should all have just civil unions as far as the law is concerned. I don't need the government to tell me I'm married.

No? Do married couples get taxed in the same way as non-married couples in your country?
No.
