You say you do not care because it does not affect you, well I really wish more people would realize it doesn't affect anyone but gays. Imagine telling Betrand Russell or C.S. Lewis that the governments recognition of the union between two people somehow detracts from the symbolism of your own relationship simply becasue those two people are of the same sex.
I'm young. I am young enough to know the childeren of these people, or at least the childeren of the demographic associated with the anti-same sex view. I've done enough illicit drugs with these kids and I've had enough unholy sexual relationships with their daughters to see quite clearly that kids can be very screwed up without gay parents.
So if it's gay child rearing that bothers you as an anticipated consequence of gay marriage, relax. I'm sure you're kids are as messed up as theirs will be.
I suspect that it's really just the sight of two men holding hands in public that makes conservatives sick. I would argue that this is misguided nastalgia and belongs right there with a distaste for niggers who can read.
grow up.
