Here is the actual address, in case I didn't link it correctly: http://marriage.rutgers.edu/publications.html

Is that talking about civil unions and that letting homosexual couples have some form of marriage 'weakens' it? Kinda sounds like it to me, which turns me off from the whole thing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UK Wedding: April ?th, 2010 US Reception: May 30th, 2010!

I think that the weakening that they are talking about is the fact that more people are forgoing marriage in favor of cohabitation, and that the ease in which a couple can get a divorce makes the institution less strong than it may have previously been.
