Strongly agree

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

However, as mentioned earlier, there is some variation among religious institutions on this issue, so the agreement is not absolute.

Agree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

Clericalism might be somewhat open to the idea of civil unions as a compromise, as it allows for legal recognition of same-sex relationships without directly challenging traditional religious definitions of marriage. However, this position would still depend on the specific religious institution's stance on same-sex relationships.

Slightly agree

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

While clericalism supports the involvement of religious institutions in governance, taking the government out of marriage entirely might be seen as a step too far. This position could be seen as undermining the role of religious institutions in shaping societal norms and values, which is a key aspect of clericalism.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

Clericalism might be somewhat open to the idea of allowing same-sex marriage while preserving the right of religious institutions to refuse same-sex ceremonies. This position acknowledges the evolving societal attitudes towards same-sex marriage while still protecting the autonomy of religious institutions. However, this position might still be seen as a departure from traditional religious values, which is why the score is slightly negative.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Clericalism generally supports the involvement of religious institutions in the governance of society, and many religious institutions have historically opposed same-sex marriage. However, some religious denominations have become more accepting of same-sex marriage in recent years, so the opposition is not absolute.
