It is discrimination to place differing values on people for the way they are born.
As a society prizing freedom, we give up the ability to censor that which we don't like, but which does not harm us.
Perfectly said. All of you people who are screaming that gay marriage will somehow "destroy" the "sanctity of marriage" will gladly gloss over the fact that marriage doesn't mean what it used to in the first place. The definition is the same, perhaps, but the MEANING (read: a person's emotions regarding it) are different. The 50% rate of divorce should prove that to you.
I just do NOT understand how anybody's marriage will suddenly mean less if two men or two women can marry each other. Can ANY of you people looking to pen a Constitutional Amendment blatantly disallowing a portion of the citizenship of this country from marrying please explain to me how it will be lessened, without going into the slippery slope argument?
So because you see marriage going down the toilet, we should push the flush handle a bunch more times just to get it overwith?

There are no stupid questions.
There are a LOT of inquisitive idiots.
