It's more than a word. Marriage for all of us "reds" is something provided by God for a man and a woman. Most couple's vows include God as a central theme. They are pledging themselves to each other before GOD.

Two gay guys can shack up, and I'm fine with giving them the same benefits (if you must), but they can never be married. It's not possible, and it would further erode the institution.


If you're against gay marriage, but in favor of civil unions, then you're for gay menage. Civil unions could turn into some sort of social corporation. At least if we call it marriage, maybe it'll continue to be limited to exactly two partners. And history shows that there've been committed gay couples who lasted longer together than the average straight marriage.
