It doesnt work out well.

You don't want it to mix eh? Then give them the civil union. Problem solved. |
Then the term marriage would have to be changed to civil union as well.
Marriage should be something thats recognized by the state and the religion. If gays want to be married then the state should allow the marriage. But if they want to be recognized by the religion, then it should be decided by the religion whether to recognize it or not.
In the eyes of the state, marriage should just be a term. Banning something because someone disagrees with the morals of it shouldn't happen, since morals are an opinion.
However, a states official stance on this should be left up to a vote within that state, as Kansas has done, and the national government shouldn't be allowed to change that stance.
But of course, this is just my opinion
