Quite simply, it uses the force of government to coerce us into recognizing deviant relationships in violation of our personal morals.

More simply put; government shouldn't enforce morality.

Society got along just fine before governments recognized marriages, when it was just the church that recognized it.

who do you mean when you say "our personal morals"? certainly you don't mean the homosexual population and the others who support gay marriage. and by the same token, i would say that there are some people in this country who don't support interracial marriage. should that not be allowed as well because it goes against some peoples personal morals?

And furthermore, it is using the force of government to implement a morality subscribed to by one political party. Who did not implement the polity in a constitutional way.
