This is an issue that I find very interesting. I am not a religious individual, however, I can on the one hand, understand the side which argues that marriage has always been between a man and a woman and should not change. If it changes to allow for two people of the same sex to marry, what's to stop it from changing to allow more than two people to marry... after all, how can we say that it is fine for a man and a woman to marry, a man and a man to marry, but not three women? Discrimination!
Basically, do you think the argument can be taken too far?
On the other hand, if we allow two people of the same sex to form a legal union which allows for all the same rights as marriage, will their unions ever really be viewed as equal to marriage?
If not, and my guess is that 'not' would most likely be the case, this is a problem as well.
These things considered, I personally, would have to say I am for homosexual marriage. As a society progresses, so should its laws.
