I believe marriage is a union between a man and woman and it should stay that way. I do not buy into the argument made by closet gay marriage supporters that calling marriage by a different name somehow makes it different.
But you've already said the child of such couples should be allowed visitation rights. So what part of marriage privileges do you not want homosexual couples to get? Do you not think they should be considered "family" by hospitals with visitation rules? Do you not think they should be in line for some inheritance if a will is not written? These are the kinds of things a civil union allows. You don't need one to live together, have sex, or have a monogamous commitment to one another.
