The union between two persons of the same sex and that between a man and a woman will never be "equal", no matter how many laws are passed or rulings by activist judges are made. They are entirely different and therefore, require different words to describe them.
I believe that a committed homosexual couple ought to be afforded the exact same legal rights as a married one through civil unions, etc., however, I along with the great majority of Americans, simply do not want the definition of marriage, that has stood for over five thousand years and is the very bedrock of civilization, changed.
The term marriage ought to be reserved for the union of one man and one woman. I do not believe this is really about the term marriage, however, it is about forcing the acceptance of a lifestyle that most of us find repugnant.
As far as legalizing gay marriage not affecting all of us, one has only to look at the ramifications of the law in Massachusetts. Parents now have no rights at all in terms of what their children can and cannot be taught about the subject. Gays are pushing their agenda heavily in the schools through books and mandatory "education" programs.
Parents are being told they and their children may not "opt out" of these indoctrination sessions since gay marriage is now the law of the land.
