I don't understand the issue over "traditional marriage". Whci tradition? From what era? There really is no such thing as a traditional marriage in the strictest sense as it has been redefined for generations. Same with family values. Marriage is not the same as it was 100 years ago or even 40 years ago when inter-racial marriage was against the law in certain states. We redefined it. Because it was the right thing to do. It's okay to have an opinion in Gay marriage - although if we're not gay it shouldn't hold much value outside of our own heads - and we shouldn't expect it too. Yet once we decide that our opinion is valuable enough to force a whole group of people to live a life of denied rights - we have crossed a line. Keep opinions to ourselves, share them with others, discuss them, shout them, debate them - but don't force them. They're just opinions after all.
Peace,
Eric
