Another hot topic right now in the U.S. mainly because it's an election year I think.

For me it's as easy as this: If you aren't trying to marry me, wtf do I care what you do? I realize it's not that easy for a lot of people though. The most heard argument against it is that it will destroy the sanctity of marriage between man and woman.

Now I really don't understand that position at all. How does Tom and Dave getting married destroy what I have with my wife? Or make it less? Only my wife and I can make or break this marriage, nobody else has that power. Do they?

The really seemingly odd thing about it is that it's being pushed by the Republican party, whose credo is and always has been "less government". So they don't want the federal government to dictate how fast I drive in my home state, but they think it's okay to say who I'll marry. Just odd.

Anyway what are your thoughts on the whole thing?
