I think it is semantics.

I would propose "civil union" like in current use. On an equal legally with marriage. Marriage has a religious connotation and background and same sex unions are frowned upon in the Bible.

Rather than insisting on using the wrong word for their relationship, give them a new word, no probs for me.
