Civil unions are fine by me, but marriage is, at the most fundamental level of the largest religion in the world, unacceptable. I just don't consider the inability to naturally reproduce to be a societal boon, but as I said before, they can perform just as well as a "normal" member of society in terms of economic roles. I fully acknowledge the fact that homosexuality will be acceptable in not too many years-- I'm just pointing out that RIGHT NOW, they aren't.
