The 'dangers' are simply not there. You dont choose to be gay you get born that way so i dont see how gay marriages cause gay couples to force their adopted kids to become gay.
And explain your believe the a decrease in child birth is caused by gay marriages? this planet is overpopuplated. ever came to mind that was the cause?
sure violent muslims breed like the fucking rats they are, but thats because of their insane religious believes that claims a woman is nothing more then a child factory. they should pass a law that forces imported muslims to be steralized...
Just let those people get married and focus on something important.
You also missed my point since I specified that nothing is wrong with a union between '2" "TWO" Adults who consent. Not 3 or 4 or more but "2"!! We should never be allowed to meddle in the affairs between two consenting citizens and they should be allowed whatever freedoms are allowed to other pairs of consenting adults.
Why not 3 or 4 or more? What's the rational argument against it if you're changing the definition of marriage?

Besides it is not like marriage is the same as it has been for centuries. Once it was ok to give your daughters hand in marriage to a man without her consent and when she was only 13. That is certainly not ok now as well as not legal. Yet it was a tradition back in the day.
What you describe is still one man/one woman marriage. Sanctioning gay marriage changes the whole idea of it. I don't have a rational argument against gay marriage, I'm just very reluctant to alter a cultural institution.

Because it still falls under the "Between TWO consenting Adults" not 3 or 4. If two consenting adults want to be married I could care less. As should anyone else. Should we begin to care about what two consenting adults do to each other we may as well begin to infringe upon other rights as well.

We altered alot of cultural institutions in our times. Women can now vote. As can Minorities. Men can no longer own other men or women. I could continue but I think you get the gist of it
In the last two hundred years the United States has been culturally superiour because we are willing to alter ourselves to better the freedoms all men and women should have. We should continue that pattern.

My biggest beef with the whole thing is that marriage, no matter what the definition, has always been a primarily religious and social issue. I don't understand why the government should be involved at all.

Because as we all know there is actually no seperation of Church and State. I see that every time I look at our federal dollar and see 'In God We Trust".

added long after the fact (just like "Under God" in the pledge) to "prove" that we're not communists.
