It is disingenuous to equate a reluctance to change society's ancient definition of marriage with "intolerance and hate".

- arrrg 13y agoNot really, no. Hate may be problematic, intolerance certainly not.
- usefulcat 13y agoThat perspective fails to address the issue of whether LGBT individuals are entitled to equal rights under the law, regardless of what name is used (e.g., "marriage", "civil union", whatever). Not to say that the name doesn't matter ("marriage" vs. "civil union"--separate but equal?), but there's definitely more going on here than just a semantic disagreement.
