Oh, you're talking about same sex people getting "married". That's a different story then. Perhaps then this debate should really focus on changing the definition of marriage, because as it stands now (and has stood for thousands of years), the thought of two men or two women getting "married" is completely illogical and doesn't make sense.

That said, let's shift the focus on the merits of changing the definition of marriage. And why should we stop at only two homosexuals getting hitched? Why not a threesome or moresome? Why only change the definition to include only two people. Also, should we allow close relatives to get hitched as well? It's not really fair for them not to. After all, if it's between "consenting adults", why should the govt stop them?
