I do agree that marriage is a religious thing and I wouldn't care at all, but getting married brings a lot of benefits.
So its not like gay people want to "realize their dreams" but we want the same benefits that straight people have.
If religious people dont want to accept gay people, then benefits shouldn't be given based on religious acts like marriage.
Marriage is not religious. Getting married in a church, with a priest and before God is the religious part.
In a lot of countries you can get married without any religion being involved. Some government officials will then officiate the wedding.
