I've always found this confusing.

Gays shouldn't be able to marry in the same way that people shouldn't be able to marry horses and toddlers.

WTF?

Wait a minute! We should ABOLISH marriage, because there is always the RISK that one day ALL of this will be permitted! Marriage at its essence is too dangerous! Heterosexual marriage can only lead to the marriage to the devil!

Let's abandon this marriage experiment.
