I don't think that gays should be 'married'. Civil unions are okay with me, though.

Just what is the difference between marriage and civil unions other than the name. For example, if Massachusetts passes an amendment that defines "marriage" as between a man and a womnan, yet constitutionalizes civil unions that are 100% equal to marriage, then what have they accomplished? What will be different?

What's the difference between "civil union" and marriage except the word? A rose by any other name....
