I don't think believing in marriage between two people who love each other is liberal.

Do some people think marriage is fake? Everyone should believe in it.

Default Marriage Can Be a Good Thing

Whether marriage is between a man/woman, man/man, woman/woman it should be treated as a positive type of long term emotional, legal and financial relationship. The ignorant among us(Republican right wingers) want to ignore gay people and pretend they will just go away. If gay people want to get married it should be encouraged to solidify their often lonely and dangerous lifestyle. After all, gay people have the right to be unhappy just like all of us straight people!! California, its about time!!

Is it that important that gay people cannot show their love for each other by getting married? I don't think God would want it any other way IMO, times change.
God is not a drill sergeant.
As long as they let the polygamist marry too.

Thats whats next... Once the law changes to say that marriage is not between a male/female, then a polygamist can legally argue that they are being discriminated against also, because they have a right to choose their way of life styles also.

Long as they arent harming others, whats the problem right?

What does one have to do with the other? At the very least, they might get a few more bucks for marriage licenses...
