Marriage and the Government

I am tired of the fight about marriage. I don't like that states made decisions and then the high courts just say they are invalid. That is annoying and demoralizing. People will always fight and the government will always complicate things, so here is my solution:

TAKE GOVERNMENT OUT OF MARRIAGE

Marriage is religious instititution. It always has been and it always will. It differs by culture and belief, but that is fine. What is not fine, is marriage being regulated and forced by those who do not care about people's culture or beliefs. If 'Separation of Church and State' says I cannot pray in a public school, then the government should not be able to define a marrige.

Here is the solution:
1. Make all government joining of people civil unions.
2. Base government benefits solely on civil unions.
3. Let people get married in their church later if they want to.

That is the only way the governement isn't infringing on the rights of religious or non religious people. It is time people stop fighting over offending everyone and just solve the issue.
