Gay Patriot gets it.

I was reading the Gay Patriot blog. He got it. Much of the conservative and practically all of the religious opposition to "gay Marriage" has nothing to do with hatred of homosexuals. It has everything to do with the fact that marriage is a religious institution. We Catholics call it a Sacrament. Civil Partnerships granting a gay couple the legal rights of the married to own property, make medical decisions for each other, etc. fine. Not Marriage because the day will come when some wacknut liberal judge will order a church to perform a wedding ceremony for a gay couple hence and , therefore, no gay "Marriage".
