Do you think our relationships are equivalent or inferior?

The New Jersey legislature is down to the last few days that a gay marriage bill can be passed so the outgoing gay-friendly governor can sign it. Yet, the Senate defers to the House and the House defers to the Senate. Both claim they don't have quite enough votes, so why bother? The reason to bother: so we can tell whether you think our relationships are inferior to yours and whether we should vote for you in the future. Which, from their point of view, is a good reason to not vote.

To nudge things along 120 clergy from 19 faiths have written a letter in favor of gay marriage. In addition to several mainstream Christian denominations the list include Buddhist, Unitarian Universalist, and several flavors of Judaism.
