I believe that goofy religious groups should be allowed to run their goofy religious ceremonies and rites as they please, so long as they don't harm others. As for "marriage," I have no problem if gay people want to call their civil marriage a marriage.
However, expecting a church to follow all the laws of the state I think is acting too much, and is probably unconstitutional in the US. A church shouldn't have to perform a marriage on a gay couple if it doesn't want to, for example.
Yeah, I'm pretty certain that this is the case. Churches still aren't required to perform any marriages they don't want to, nor should they be. It's purely ceremonial from a law standpoint anyhow. I'd be very surprised if that has changed.
