Religious institutions already choose who they want to marry. There is nothing illegal about their choices as it stands right now.

As employers, I'm not sure what their obligations would be to same sex employee families. They should be forced to provide benefits to all legal families no matter the make up. I guess providing health insurance to their employees partner is too much for them to handle. I say too bad.
