I don't believe the government has any business sanctioning gay marriage because it is a private matter. Sanctioning traditional marriage is the government's business *only* because it relates to society's survival. If it didn't, I would not support all of these government regulations about marriage.
I actually agree whole heartedly with this.
I have no problem with homosexuality.
I have no disagreements with the idea that love is love, and that the love between a man and a man can be the same as it is between a man and a woman.
But it is most certainly not the same thing as a married couple with children. Two gay men or women is not the same as a traditional family unit, no matter how you slice it.
The ugly question that it brings us to, however, is what about married heterosexual couples with no children and no plans to *have* children? This to me is the same predicament as the gay couple, in terms of the perpetuation od scoiety...
