In the wake of California Supreme Court's decision to allow gay marriage, I am reminded of a possible solution that has been floated for some time now. Get rid of all legal marriages by the state. Make the only state sanctioned arrangement be a domestic partnership, and leave the rite of marriage to religious / spiritual institutions. Just cut the whole religious aspect out of the state sanctioned item all together.
Of course, the religious right will balk loudly at this, given their determination to wed the church and the state. But screw them.
