Homosexuals would be discriminated against, because you are denying them the same life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that straight people enjoy.

Live. Be free. Pursue happiness.

But you should not do is try and link individual desires to the yoke of the taxpayer, or play with the building blocks of human society.

Society does not need gay marriage in order to survive, but it does need to protect heterosexual marriage. Civilization is built off of millions of families producing children the same way your body produces cells. Without a stable process for doing so, your body would not be viable.

Conversely, there is no (to borrow a phrase) Queer Nation. They have no need to procreate, nor do they need the institutions that protect procreation. People that are gay will appear as always, and seek each other out. Convenient, yes, but it leaves the heavy lifting to others.

Excellent. This argument, along with the polygamy (or group marriage or I want to marry my city) scenario, are the ones, in my opinion, which are the clearest and most logical arguments we can make to challenge the notion of "gay marriage".
