I'm not sure how well that would stand up with those who were married with a justice of the peace.

As for myself, I have no problems with homosexual couples getting married and using the term marriage. If you want to redefine the term marriage to apply only to those married in a church or with some kind of religious officiant, go ahead but it needs to apply to both homosexual and heterosexual couples.
Yep. And divorce is immoral and unbiblical, so we better outlaw that too while we are at it.
