Hasnt this already happened? Is there any argument
against same sex marriage that is not a religious
argument? How can the state enforce a religious view on
someone that does not hold that view?

If we still held Judeo-Christian values as a society,
abortion wouldnt be the issue that it is. And there are
more non-religious arguements against abortion than there
are against same sex unions it seems to me.

This is why I think there is a distinction between
marriage in a civil sense, and in a religious sense.
