    the controversy is semantics pure and simple.

    gays want to be "married"

    the church says that "marriage" is a sanctity between a man and a woman in order to procreate (or summat like that)

    therefore gays can't "marry" as they aren't a man and a woman procreating, they're a man and a man (or woman and woman) joining together and they can't procreate.

    the church doesn't object to a civil union because it isn't a "marriage", it's a civil union.

    but this isn't good enough for (some) gays who want to be "married".

    even though "marriage" and civil union is one and the same thing.

    so they slap each others face arguing over a word.
