Marriage is the founding block of society, it is the major instrument against poverty, it is the bedrock of children's upbringing.
So when it comes to priorities.....it has to be defended above all else and if you cannot see that...then god help you!

"Marriage is the founding block of society, it is the major instrument against poverty, it is the bedrock of children's upbringing.

If anything it is going to reinforce the idea of monogamous commitment.
If gay people want to stand up at a ceremony and swear to spend the rest of their lives together that should be their prerogative. Amending the state (or Federal) constitution to deny them that right is just plain bigoted and wrong. If you can't see that, then God help you.
