Civil Unions are performed by "Civil" servants, such as Judges, Captains on a ship, etc., and "Marriages" are reserved for weddings performed by the Clergy. Like that will ever happen!Karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05973642502435701590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12830512.post-45774902298103428702009-11-28T14:47:17.693-05:002009-11-28T14:47:17.693-05:00I still think that civil unions should be the only...I still think that civil unions should be the only legally recognized unions for all of us.

Not everything, especially questions about equality, should be put to a popular vote.Pax Romanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00951019083510283683noreply@blogger.com
