While Meretz supports marriage equality, they might also recognize the importance of religious freedom. They could potentially agree with allowing churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies, as long as it does not hinder the overall progress towards marriage equality.

Neutral
Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision
Meretz's primary focus is on achieving marriage equality, and they might not have a strong stance on whether the government should be involved in marriage or not. However, they would likely still want legal recognition and protections for same-sex couples, which might not be guaranteed if marriage is solely a religious decision.
