I didn't like Meg Whitman's politics, but she did say one thing that
resonated.
Get rid of marriage as a political instrument. The government should
deal in domestic partnerships without religious requirements or
overtones.
If your church wants to marry you, go ahead - but it shouldn't be a
prerequisite for forming an economic/emotional partnership with someone,
and it shouldn't have a difference on your legal rights as a
partnership.
