I propose that our government stop sanctioning marriages. Instead of getting a marriage license, you would go to the clerk and get a domestic partnership, no matter who you or your partner is. If you wish to have the word "marriage" attached to your relationship you would then go to the church of your choice to do so. Religious institutions would have the choice of what types of marriages they would sanction.
For those already married, nothing changes. For future, though, all committed couples would be treated equally in the eyes of the law.
