If folks want to enter into civil contracts that's fine.
Marriage is a civil contract and gays are being denied this civil right where they're banned from entering into a contract with someone of their own sex.

I do have a problem with trying to force people to view marriage as something that goes completely against their faith.
They are not being forced to do anything. What and how they view marriage is irrelevant in a secular world and the only thing that matters is their civil rights under the equal protection clause and 14th amendment.
Marriage is a social and secular institution that predates religion entirely anyway.

I don't think this is relevant in a discussion about marriage in a country that isn't 300 years old.
