Yeah I've never really understood that Tully, divorce and other issues surrounding marriage as we know it don't receive a 1000th of the ire the gay marriage issue has filled these people with. If they really cared about the sanctity of marriage I would think a few other pressing issues should be on their minds as well.
I just wish people would admit that they're bigots and move on, at least be honest about why your seething with hatred and anger over something that has virtually no effect on your life (well in some cases anyway, its amazing how many of the opponents of gay marriage have been outed over the last few years). Dancing around the issue by citing "sanctity of marriage" and how society as we know it will collapse if we redefine the word just comes across as a joke to the rest of us. Of course plain old bigotry isn't enough of a reason to ban anything these days so they spin these ridiculous issues in an attempt to give their position some kind of backbone.
