I'm not counting "freedom to be an intolerant jackass", apologies in advance.

Not at all... even if you are against it for religious reasons, you should allow your god to handle it, because in the end your god gave them the free will to do as they please and will be their judge, right?

Well, gee, if you take away the "freedom to be an intolerant jackass" what do they have left?
Allowing homosexual people to wed does nothing to infringe any one's rights. Those who think it is "wrong", for whatever reason, would still have every right to think so.
If people believe that homosexuality is a sin then they simply shouldn't perform any homosexual acts. To think they have some right to force their religious views onto an entire nation by making it illegal is absurd.

The only people who think that their rights will be infringed upon are the cold hearted SOB's or jackasses in this world & they don't deserve to have any rights to begin with.

The christian mantra is that everyone (of them) should have the freedom to be an intolerant jackass. Are you trying to infringe upon that. That is far more important than the rights of people christians love to hate.

My personal freedoms would seem a lot more free if that were allowed.
I've tried and failed at heterosexual marriage twice, but the government will let me do it as many times as I want. I can leave a trail of Ex Mrs. Ghouls across the entire country if I want.
Whereas my dear gay friends have been together for years and could make their relationship work forever, but the government says no to them.
There are two issues that drive me to the voting booths and gay rights is one of them. I hope I live to see the day where "all" love is viewed as equal love.

Yeah...cos it's my constitutional right as a citizen of the world to object to the sexuality of others...and by the way, just in case people try and say I don't have that right, my god hates it too, so there!...lol Gotta giggle sometimes, don'tcha?
Of course it doesn't infringe my personal freedoms if and when homosexuals marry. More power to 'em, I say.

No, of course not. It doesn't threaten my idea of marriage that gays and lesbians marry or have some kind of legally acknowledged domestic partnership where they can share each other's health benefits and be able to visit each other in hospitals. People need to lighten up. They just want to be able to be happy like everyone else. I can respect that and I hope things will change in the States for them.

No my personal freedoms are not infringed upon if homosexuals marry- but the the Word of God is mocked- so that is why it is wrong to me.

Of course not!
Love the answer, about her insurance premiums going up!
There is no rational reason not to allow gays to marry.
The fundy Christians just don't like it and are very used to getting their own way and imposing their beliefs an the rest of society.

The one whining about "unholy marriages" being supported by her insurance and taxes... I am sure that there are plenty of hetero marriages that she would not consider "holy", that are supported already by these things... No one else's marriage infringes on my freedoms...
