Marriage is redefined by every generation. Do you remember when divorces were unheard of? There was a time when the definition of marriage didn't include interracial couples. Society is always in a constant state of self reinvention. To pretend that marriage has a carved-in-stone definition is to misunderstand how marriage is defined.
The problem is that the government put itself in the marriage game, when marriage is for most people a religious issue. All people should be entitled to government recognition of civil unions. No one should be entitled to government recongnition of marriage, unless all marriages are recognized.
