The state shouldn't impose it's moral views on the church. End of.
We separated the church from state in most countries for that very reason to stop one influencing the other. It should be up to individual religions as to whether they marry same sex couples according to their religion, not the state.
Personally I'm not religious and have a civil union with my wife. I didnt get married in a church because it isn't our club.
If you dont like the club dont be a part of it.
I actually find it a bit odd that in the pursuit of perceived equality of one group we denigrate the beliefs of another.
I find the whole thing a bit fucking odd frankly. Why want to join a club that doesnt want you.
