Absolutely yes. We should eliminate the income tax and pass the FAIR Tax Act. We should then create (at the state level) a legal document (or a series of them) that would essentially allow consenting adults to create community property as though they were married under the current system. The process for dissolving one of these contracts would be similar to divorce. These documents could also handle custody of children, succession, power of attorney, ect.
That way, churches or really anyone who wants to can perform a "marriage" ceremony. Churches aren't afraid of being forced to do "gay weddings". The religious don't have to worry about the word "marriage" being redefined by the government. The gays get their weddings and their insurance benefits. Everybody wins, except the IRS, who as a result of the Fair Tax Act, gets dismantled.

I'm with kingbob on this, with a few added items to strengthen things:
1. Also eliminate the estate and gift tax.
2. Pass a Constitutional amendment that would allow a church, a minister, or other religious organization to refuse to perform any "marriage ceremony" for any reason, or any business to refuse to participate (bakeries, wedding photographers, etc.).
3. The FAIR Tax should be just that, not a VAT.
