Are you saying that all marriages not related to a speciffic religous institution should be civil unions, and the Marriage should be an exclussivley religous institution?

So that say, any marriage performed by a judge or a justuice of the peace, any common law marriage would be a civil union and not a marriage?

I'm not saying anything, just looking for clarity, but a distinction between legal nd religous marriage seems like an arguable position.
