The thing I don't get, and that NO conservative has yet to explain logically, is how allowing gay and lesbian couples to get married affects heterosexual marriages. Will two men getting married somehow make my parents, who will celebrate 50 years in a few weeks, suddenly get a divorce? And how is allowing stable same-sex couples who've been together for decades somehow a worse influence on the idea of marriage than a celebrity marriage that lasts days, if not mere hours?

I think - and it's just an hypothesis - it's more a matter of the "legitimization" of a homosexual relationship via marriage being a perceived slap in the face to the hard-line Christian beliefs of couple-hood, and by extension, a big ol' thumbing of the nose at their God. I could be wrong, though. *shrugs*
