Something is broken and it's not the fault of gay marriage.
I know that we're just a convenient target to get the far right all whipped up but the denial of logic just causes all of me to recoil like nails on powdered steel. If you had religious marriage ceremonies and non? Fine. But that won't be good enough for people.
Hate reigns. Love begs not to be shot in the head in the name of love

So the government decides the definition of marriage? Marriage has been defined by historical events. It's a religious ceremony and the government shouldn't be involved whatsoever. It's a 1st amendment breach, establishing and prohibiting because you must have a government approval (marriage license) to be married. Love doesn't matter, people marrying for love is really quite a new idea in the timeline of the world.
