I do believe that the government needs to step away from "marriage" - the government should regulate civil unions that entail various legal consequences and privileges, because that's government's job. Marriage, as a religious institution, should be left to religious organizations.
Sadly, the two concepts - legal union and religious union - are so entwined at this point that it's impossible to unpack them.

Thus: marriage for everyone.
