Your entire argument is to let anyone and everyone define marriage for themselves, that there will no longer be a universal definition in America.
That means that all religions, all churches, all individuals, all atheists, all cults, all homosexuals, define marriage for themselves.

And yet this hasn't been an issue until the govt began threatening and prosecuting those that do not support 'homosexual marriage'.
Anyone can act out the ceremony of marriage. You're not obliged to recognize any form of it. If there's no enforcement, you have nothing to fear.
We marry with God as our witness, not some govt clerk.
There is also a significant 1st Amendment issue here as well:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
Not only should Congress be prevented from defining marriage, so should the radical judges advancing 'homosexual marriage'. Marriage is intrinsic to religion, and the federal govt is clear violation of attributing to its meaning; it is also encroaching upon those that refuse to recognize various fabricated forms of marriage.
I'm not concerned about two males carrying out a ceremony they pretend to be marriage. But I am concerned about the govt forcing me to recognize and support it.
