I'd rather everyone (homosexual and heterosexual) got the option of civil partnerships with those wishing to get a Church sanctioned marriage being allowed to subject to the church's position.
It's a sad fact of life that religious homosexuals will always be lesser citizens than heterosexuals in the eyes of their religious leaders and dare I say many of the lay community (not so much in this country but definitely in parts of the US) and if it took centuries for the Catholic Church to apologise for Galileo's heliocentric model of the solar system I don't hold out much hope of this attitude changing

Ideally of course I'd like to kick religion right out of government or at least tax it if it wants to meddle in State affairs but that too is a long way off
