Orthodox Jews against California liberalism

The Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America lambasted the landmark decision by California’s Supreme Court which declared legal restrictions on same-sex “marriage” unconstitutional. The court’s decision came out even though a majority of Californians voted against homosexual “marriage.” California is a national tend-setter in the US, and the court’s decision will trigger a wave of similar rulings in other states.
Judaism, which mandates execution or banishment of practicing homosexuals, would look very odd in the society where homosexual “marriage” is legal. Israel legalized homosexual unions long ago.

Obadiah,

I think that there is a difference between marriage and union: I believe that marriage would open doors to adopting children by homosexual couples. I don’t think civil unions would.
As far as I understand, the civil union, just let’s them share their finances, including inheritance.
