I think you may be unpleasantly surprised.

I regard civil war, or the fragmentation of the United States of America into two or three different nations as very small, very real possibilities.

You live in Florida, which along with the rest of the East and West Coast makes up the "progressive" (I would use a different word) portion of the United States -- the rest of the country, especially the Heartland, is very emotionally involved in this issue, and they don't like what they are hearing and reading.

By itself, Gay marriage may not be that significant of an issue, but in combination with others, it has the potential to be the final straw that breaks the camel's back.

Frist is talking about a Constitutional Amendment. There are two ways to do that, one involving a Constitutional Convention, and if that happens I won't make any bets on what comes out of it. But I don't think it will be pretty.
