    As fellow an enlightened centrist myself, I often recommend the compromise of letting gays marry, but taking away their voting right.

    Yet, the liberals are outraged by this idea, unwilling to meet in the middle.

    So who’s the radical now?

      Honestly, I say split marriage up into a government contract that has all the benefits for everyone, don’t call it marriage but call it something else. THEN, deem “Marriage” a purely theatrical thing that anyone can hold a ceremony for and let that be the end of it. Get rid of the “you have to be in love” requirement, and just call it a day.
