| Boycott marriage in general! |

Should the fundies seriously pursue their push for a "marriage amendments" I propose that we encourage a boycott of marriage altogether.
Civil Unions can exist between a man and a woman too. More and more states and private industries are funding benefits for life partners.
A couple can even have a ceremony without a marriage contract.
We need to take this opportunity to make our country more strongly identify the separation of religious and secular. Marriage is religious and should not even be a subject of law. Civil Union is secular and should be dealt with in that sector.
