Again, everyone seems really hung up on the gay marriage issue. I have given coherent logical reasons why a group of people who choose to identify themselves by a behavior should not be given special rights over those who do not perform that behavior. When there is a dispute about these things, that's where the gov't comes in to decide. And it was decided, overwhelmingly.

I must've missed those coherent logical reasons.
The ironic thing about conservatism in america today is that the standard conservative line is that the government isn't qualified to regulate business, but it is qualified to regulate social behavior. The government can tell a man what he can or can't do with another man, but they'll be damned if it is any of the government's business what one man does with another man's money. How is that a consistent perspective?? You might be able to say the opposite about the liberal side, but that isn't really important for this thread.
