Was that a rhetorical question? The discrimination is that you have the government now prohibiting two tax-payers from getting married.

Gender is a legitimate basis for organizing our society and its affairs that would never be countenanced with any other criteria. Men and women are different and that's reflected in our laws and its not discrimination to acknowledge gender is relevant to the definition of marriage.

There is nothing, NOTHING, stopping homosexuals from marrying.

They can look for a priest/pastor and arranged a wedding before the eyes of the Lord. (Whether the Lord approves is a different matter)

The only way a homosexual could find a problem is if they find marriage... an institution whose legitimacy is *ONLY* conveyed by government.

And I would hazard that this belief would be wrong. That marriage is an institution witness before G-d, not government.
