And, you don't lie!
All kidding, sort of, aside - there is no end in sight once something like gay marriage is approved nationwide - additional humans, all kinds of animals, snakes, even non-human/animal entities will have a place in the marriage-go- round. Gays could end up marrying a dozen gays just to get them on insurance. Animals could end up marrying each other, even robots.
The point is this: if you say all sexual relationships between consenting adults are equally deserving of government endorsement, you have no basis for excluding other types of relationships, like polygamy. The definition of marriage would be watered down to the point of being meaningless.
I just don't think it is in this country's interest to go tampering with the legal definition of marriage and those that support the effort to do so have bubbles in their think tank.
