I thought there had to be a separation of church vs. state. A marriage doesn't have to be a religious ceremony. You're not obligated to get married by a priest, minister, rabbi, etc in a Church or Temple or anything like that. You can get married in a Courthouse by a Judge and it would still be legal. And EVEN if you do choose to get married in a ceremony that has religious affiliations, the marriage won't be legal until you sign a LEGAL marriage license. Nothing about RELIGION. Marriage is about how religious YOU make it, but most importantly it's a legal thing, so why are people so against it? Is it honestly going to affect your lives? Who CARES if they want to get married? We should let them! Heterosexuals are no superior than homosexuals, so why should we get these priviledges and they can't? That is DISCRIMINATION! SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE!
Oh, and if you were wondering, I'm straight.

The people who view marriage as a religious bond between a man and a woman are the people who don't agree. No matter what anyone says about separation of church and state, people will believe what they believe. I'm against it- its just what I believe.

for some reason there are some straight people who think if a gay couple get married, then their own marriage is less valid. I say let everyone get married and let's all be miserable together. KIDDING! hee hee

I see it as a control issue as to why some people make it a point to not want others to have the benefits of marriage that others have.

Something about demeaning the family, and changing the definition of marriage. I agree with you. It is discrimination. Luckily, gay marriage has been legalized in Canada... the States should follow our lead. (Took us forever as it is!)

I think your right. If they want to get married, let them. It's their life, how are their choices affected us in ANY way? But you know what I think is WHACK?! That Priests and Nuns are "married" to their church. Not trying to be racist here, I just don't understand the concept.

I don't care, its their life and hasn't got anything to do with me.
If they love and care for each other, who cares! They have a right to be in love, in a relationship or marriage and be happy. They're human beings.

The reason why some people care is because they are marrying the same sex instead of the opposite sex.
