I was told this in a different question.
Gay marriage is a matter of equal rights from the state. Straight couples so willingly accept special rights when they marry (ie, taxes, next of kin, inheritance laws, healthcare benefits, etc...) but are fussing that we want the same? Explain that one to me.
We will gladly withdraw our argument/protest if heteorsexual couples will give up their marriage special rights by the states. You can still be married in your churches and be recognized there.. just no more special rights bythe state just for straight couples.
