do you not see that by allowing the same sex to marry each other that you are now opening the gates to all sorts of marriages.

Sure, the slippery slope argument. I've seen used it countless times to greater and lesser effect. Mostly I find it to be intellectually lazy. Here, you are using it to suggest that we can't let two men get married now because a woman might be able to marry her dog later. Rather than spend any pixels analyzing your choice of that specific juxtaposition, let me just say that it's an argument from consequences, and not a particularly compelling one at that.

Moreover, you still forgot to specify how the marriage of half a dozen people to each other makes a run-of-the-mill hetero marriage somehow worth less.
