some have made the point that all the things that are included in most civil unions can be obtained in an a la carte method, employing a lawyer, drawing up documents. There may be some exceptions.
What this general authority opposes is that they be bundled together by statute for non-traditional couples/groups. I certainly wouldn't restrict civil unions to gays. They would be available to straights also and potentially groups.
So what is fundamentally wrong with bundling? What is the bedrock principle of the gospel that says "bundling bad, a la carte ok"?
By the way it is very easy to answer questions when there is never a followup question.
