Why I Support Refuse to Sign…

Marriage is, inherently, a religious term. Essentially, state-licensed marriages define doctrine for people of faith. The government should grant civil unions to all its citizens – be they homosexual or heterosexual – and allow each congregation, denomination, or religion to bless those unions and call them what they want. The government needs to stay out of the marriage business. Churches, synagogues, and mosques need to stay out of the civil union business.
