				My Proposal
			 
 Tradition be damned, this is what should be done.
 The State-sanctioned contract now typically called "marriage" should be changed to be called domestic partership or whatever. Regardless of M-F, F-F, M-M, whomever.  And anyone who wants to enter into such a contractual relationship - barring legitimate state interests like protecting minors, etc. - should have this right.
 
 "Marriages" should be then left to the church under whatever rationale they choose.
 
 Takes the church/state issue out of it and puts everyone on equal footing.
