As I said before, redefining of marriage results in having to redefine many other meanings of words too-it's complicated and time-consuming and more problems emerge. If we keep 'marriage' to mean what it means, and have another option as an alternative, for same sex couples then why not do that.

Same sex marriage has happened before. Same sex couples have a civil partnership but why not marriage? I cant see the harm
