@Brian Johnston Marriage is not "a christian creation by g_d", my people have been getting married long before your religion existed, since your religion is based upon a pagan debasement of mine. If we want to go by who invented marriage, Hindus have been getting married long before your religion existed, and even before my religion, so Hindus own marriage.

More power to you and your husband. I'm a straight grandmother, but never understood why it bothered people, if gay people got married. It takes nothing away from others. My guy wasn't sure about whether it was advisable, to grant gay people the same right to marry, that straight people have, until his daughter came out. She is now married, and she and her wife have a lovely baby girl. It just makes sense, that people in a committed relationship, be able to share and inherit property, be beneficiaries of insurance, and make critical decisions with their partner.

So, if this is left to the states, what happens if a married gay couple moves to a more regressive state, due to jobs or family? If they have a children, and one partner dies, will the surviving partner lose social security benefits and parental rights over those children? If one partner becomes very ill, will the other partner be allowed to make decisions about life support, or will that right go to the sick partner's parents? How about gay couples, who already reside in states that would make their union illegal? Do they have to uproot their family and move?
