Gay Marriage

[The Jays]

Ok, a marriage and a civil union are two different things.

But, can a priest perform both of them? Save some time and effort for the Catholic couple?

no, if it means so much to them to get a marriage, let them put in the time to do both

But then, that require a government representative. That person gets paid from taxpayer money.

If you have the priest do it all, and he's registered with the government as being someone who can perform marriages, he receives no money from the government for his services, and you get the same thing in the end.
