Lek: This doesn't affect your religion one single bit. No one can force churches to host same sex marriage. This is about not forcing the rest of the population to live by religious values.
I'm very sad to see that you think the upset of a group over the definition and history of a word should be considered above removing the blatant, pointless discrimination which stigmatises a whole section of society.
Marriage has nothing to do with religion anymore. Nothing. If you choose to make it about religion, that is your problem.
Your argument seems to be we shouldn't change laws when they are found to be harmful in case people get bent out of shape about it. Under that mindset, we'd still be stuck with slavery, no rape in marriage, no women voting, and so on.
