I don't accept your premise at all.

Look, I don't want the state preaching that heterosexual and homosexual unions are the same. It's as simple as that.

My friend Torie will tell you that I'm set in concrete on this. No sense trying to convince me. My ways are not in error.

It doesn't, anybody can marry as long as they meet the marriage requirements of the states and localities. To claim differently is simply wrong. Ergo, no discrimination.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood you, but I took the above statement to say that gay people could marry people of the opposite sex to get the civil benefits.
