The real problem here is that the church and state have gotten tangled up on the marriage issue. Religious covenants of marriage should be the domain of the church; legal unions and household sharing should be a government issue, IMO.

I agree, The whole marriage debate is framed incorrectly in order to cause division.
Marriage is not a legal contract, it is a natural construct ordained by the Author of reality. We CANNOT redefine it. The problem is that in a corporatist/socialist state, marriage is a legal contract created by the state. This should not be. Marriage is defined by God and enacted by the church, not the state. Eliminate the income tax, social(ist) benefits, etc. and the state would have no business with marriage.
