Hypothetically...
The state of New York puts this into law:
All civil unions are recognized by the state of New York as a union between two people, and receive all the right, privileges, benefits. The term "marriage" will simply be defined as a civil union between a man and a woman.
In those two sentences, where does it say that a marriage is better than a civil union?
There are private schools that I can't go to because I'm not Jewish. There are private schools that Jews can't go to because the schools only want Catholics.
ANd it's not like saying that at all. Can the federal government force the Catholic Church to recognize gay marrriage?
BTW, Gonzo, Can you answer the first question I asked?
