I have a feeling this issue is clearing the way for more
discrimination and "hate-type" lawsuits aimed at churches
and/or pastors.
I don't see any other reason for it.

Most states are beginning to recognize the non-marriage "union" and
grant the same benefits as a conventional marriage.
You don't even need a church to get married. Tons of people march into courthouses all over the country and get married every day. Churches can do whatever they want, as far as I am concerned. Marry gays, don't marry gays, whatever.
