-- Unless the rights of one or more of the parties involved -- [& in particular, - children] are being violated, governments have no legal basis to interfere in civil contracts of marriage.
This issue is a tempest in a teapot simply because government has given favorable tax & insurance benefits to 'traditional' married couples.
The solution is equally simple. End the favoritism.
Find other ways to promote family values.

Tough:
Gay people do have the right to get married. They have the right to marry someone of the opposite sex.

Big of you to admit it.
Do you have the power to dictate the rules of peoples civil marriage contracts? -- More appropriately, do you see this power enumerated in our Constitution?

Sorry kid. But even sexual deviates have rights to life, liberty, and property. -- Unless they violate the rule of law.

How are homosexuals denied the right to life, liberty and property?

See my last post to 'outlaw' for the link to some of their claims..
