You make some good points.

Liberals frequently say that “gay marriage” doesn’t affect your own marriage, how does it affect your marriage if the lesbians next door have a marriage license, etc.

And you point out that changing the definition of marriage changes the way the entire society looks at marriage and family laws. It goes far beyond the neighbor lesbians having a marriage license and doing whatever it is they do in the privacy of their relationship.

I’ve heard that gay adoption is a big issue in the gay community, and that many states still have restrictive laws in that area. Look for more gay adoption lawsuits, if these “gay” married couples are not treated “equally” under our family law in that area.

Well IT WILL AFFECT the way I conduct my business, or the way religious institutions I do business with conduct theirs.

If a President like Obama can FORCE Catholic institutions at their own expense, to provide abortificent products to their
employees IN VIOLATION of their moral doctrine, what’s to prevent any Obama-like democrat from FORCING Christian institutions to provide benefits to gay partners (thus, forcing them to recognize a “marriage” their religion tells them is sinful and against God’s laws )?

First they came for the Catholics.... then, they legalize gay marriage, who’s next after Catholics?

Not just liberals. Libertarians like Neal Boortz say the same thing. He will rant on and on about how trying to stop this will lose the precious moderate and independent vote.

It's too bad. I enjoy his rants about government education and other government outrages, but I'm ready to throw out my radio when he gets into these social issues.
