Why tide has turned in favor of gay marriage: The notion that SIN doesn’t exist.
I've expressed those same sentiments. According to their logic, if a man wants to marry his daughter, and she's all for it, why should we stop it? If he wants to have 3, 10, 100 wives, why should we stop it if they all agree? If a man wants to marry his dog, the dog won't disagree. And since it would make the man happy (and happiness is the sole determinant), why should we stop it? Sheer lunacy.
“Im proud to say in my state of West Virginia gay marriage is still opposed by nearly a 70/30 margin. So it will NEVER be the law here, unless its shoved down our throats by the Supreme Court like abortion was.”
It will be, eventually.
Here’s why:

This is a commitment to family values? You can't be serious, Cokie?
Homosexuality is just partner-assisted masturbation with all the benefits that masturbation produces.
I’m going to put my foot down when some Quif wants to marry my Dog or my Horse.
Glad to see someone else around here understands this. Most people think linearly so they think it only gets worse.
I wonder when the next phase of the cycle starts. . .
Because G-d has given up on america - decided that we are not worthy.
That would be a good question to ask Mitt Romney. He was just about the first Republican to surrender on this issue. After jury-rigging the whole gay marriage fiasco in Massachusetts, he has flip-flopped back publicly to opposing it.
I strongly doubt that any sexually-embarrassing photos of Mitt Romney exist.

Sorry about the double post. I realized that I meant “jerry-rigged”, not “jury-rigged” and tried to stop the send. Apparently, I was too late.
Brainwashing is achieving its goal. How can lawmakers be so dense? They’re listening to their brain-washed childdren? A few tears from a group of people who, when no one is watching, would revile you, is enough to convince a conservative? BS!
Where are the stories of children being pressured to be gay? Of people being punished for disagreeing? People being fired? Churches facing hate campaigns? List of voters made public to expose them to harm? This is pure evil, people.
70/30 was the level of opposition in my state (Washington) as well. Look how that turned out.
According to another FR thread and Telegraph(UK), "CNN Founder Ted Turner 'Spends One Week Each Month With A Different Girlfriend'". I imagine the parent quoted in this article thinks it is more important to be happy in bed, even if it is as an elderly man with no real relationships like Ted Turner, than to achieve the peace that comes from following God's will and God's word. I find that incredibly sad for Ted Turner, for the father who sees life through such a shallow lens, and for the poor man's kids who grew up with no moral guidance and no deeper purpose than finding happiness through carnal sensation.
Because many have been conditioned to think that the institution comes from man and thus the state, 40% in a recent poll. This is wonderful for statists and homosexualists. Because if folks think marriage comes from the state, they will accept whatever impossibility the state puts forth as marriage that year, and society can then be manipulated through gubbermental rewards and punishments that already exist concerning govt recognition of the institution.
Freegards
I guess they realize that no matter what the laws state marriage is for a man and a woman. You cannot fool your inner being.
This country has had non-stop free ads run for gay marriage the last fifteen years. The MSM jumped on this one and never let go. Ethics aside, I doubt much human activity could hold out against that type of force.
My concern is - what will they push next?
Next up getting the age of consent lowered so they can prey on younger children.
