[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be all for a system where you go down to town hall and get a civil marriage and that's what counts for all your official govt documents and then you do whatever you/your religion wants as far as a private ceremony.

If you think about it, it's really a little bizarre that if someone sets up an online church they can then make people ministers eligible to marry people. [/quote]
OP here, and that's what I was aiming at.  I was hoping to achieve it without having to change any laws, by promoting the idea of having those who believe that a marriage sanctified by God must be between a man and a woman call such a marriage a Marriage, allowing them to accept that a mere marriage, carried out under secular law or by some church with more liberal policies, can be whatever the law or that other church defines.  I want to make it even easier by continuing to accept any church's Marriage as a fully legal marriage, just like now, not requiring a separate civil ceremony -- as long as you have a civil license.[/quote]
