[concerned about politics]

Marriage is a sacrament.

The homosexuals will never, ever be united in Holy Matrimony. That's for heterosexuals only. Homosexuals need not apply.

They can play "married", but anyone with a mind knows it's not anything like marriage, and never will be. They can't dictate another persons thought, no matter how many corrupt politicians they pay off.

The point is that, they (homosexuals) are in the eyes of the law married, and that gives such "unions" a sort of secular sanctification. When you get down to it, the whole point of marriage, whether performed by clergy or a civil official, is to give social aprroval to a union between two people who are going to engage in sexual activity. By elevating same-sex "unions" to co-equal legal status with "true" (1 man, 1 woman) marriage, it gives legal and social approval to depraved relationships. It also turns marriage as an institution into a farce, and will encourage more hetero couples to simply "shack-up", rather than bother going to the altar.
