Since when is marriage about rights or privileges?


The list is too long to enumerate. This one comes to mind first:

IRS form 1040. Married filing jointly.

A tax law isn't a right or privilege.


It should be fair. If civil union and married couples pay different
rates it is not fair. You may say it is not very Christian like.

Marriage and civil unions aren't equal, so I wouldn't expect the same rates.


Why not? They have the same types of expenses, medical insurance, and
even children. Why can they not get the same tax rate? Is marriage a
superior nion? Maybe the gay civil union is superior. Other than your
opinon can you make a sensible argument of one of the other?
