Regardless of how you feel about the CU’s, an observation:
When offered SSCU’s as a compromise, most homoactivists loudly refuse, insisting that they have to have the word “marriage”.
This puts the lie to their stated desire to have the same legal standing as married people. It exposes their agenda of undefining and destroying marriage, the desire to “upset the apple cart”.

Marriage as we have always known it probably won’t exist in another 20 years.
WASHINGTON — Unmarried mothers gave birth to 4 out of every 10 babies born in the United States in 2007, a share that is increasing rapidly both here and abroad, according to government figures released Wednesday.
Before 1970, most unmarried mothers were teenagers. But in recent years the birthrate among unmarried women in their 20s and 30s has soared — rising 34 percent since 2002, for example, in women ages 30 to 34. In 2007, women in their 20s had 60 percent of all babies born out of wedlock, teenagers had 23 percent and women 30 and older had 17 percent.
Much of the increase in unmarried births has occurred among parents who are living together but are not married, cohabitation arrangements that tend to be less stable than marriages, studies show.

And this was three years ago. I assume it has gotten worse. Marriage with children used to be the bedrock of our society. No longer.
The divorce rate has supposedly gone down because fewer people are marrying.

I fear the unraveling of American society will continue.
