Even though I'm gay, I'm not pro gay marriage. However, I'm pro civil union. What's the difference one might ask!!
I would like to think of marriage as an institution between a man and a woman that provides religious acceptance to be together and all human rights that follows it, such as immigration, taxation, inheritance, insurance..etc. and I can understand how people may get upset because we are trying to "equalize" between the two when the reality is that both will never be equal from a religious point of view. That's why I don't want the gay union to infringe upon what was already established for the straight community.
A civil union however, will provide all the legal humanitarian rights without touching the religious part. I think that this is fair enough. As long as the civil union will give me the same exact rights, i mean immigration, inheritance, tax relief, insurance and so forth, without touching religion or asking for God's blessing on this union then I'm happy.
I think this is a good enough solution that will make the straight community happy since, religiously we are not equal and we are not asking for God's blessing in this union. So please, don't bring the religion as a reason to block my access to simple human rights. And if you are gonna say no, then please provide a solution or an alternative thought since I'm not gonna live my life according to YOUR standards and neither am I gonna wait for your acceptance. It is just super annoying when people say no and not provide any solutions. It means two things:
1)- U have no clue about what you are talking about and have a mental block that hovers over your head just because you don't like what you are hearing.
2)- You are incapable of freeing your mind and thinking outside the box. No creativity what so ever.
So, other than religion, morality and ethics, what else can you say about gay marriage..oops..gay civil union i should say!!..
Sorry for my long posts and thanks for your patience.
