Why would you want to discriminate against 2 adults of the same sex from entering a legal contract?I agree with you totally here. The government has no business deciding who is married and who is not.
Are there any other legal contracts that you can think of that you'd discriminate in the same way?
The religious ceremony is a different story. If churches, temples or mosques do not want to perform same sex ceremonies, that is fine with me.
If you want to allow homosexuals the same rights as heterosexuals, then the correct thing to do is have the legal portion for all couples called "civil unions", and have the religious ceremony called a marriage.
How does it "step on the toes' of Christians?
