| Coca-Cola said: bible defined marriage and make it holy. There were many cultures when bible came into world. but you cannot deny that Jews and their G_d brought something entirely new. And it survived ever since. So there are many people who would like to keep it that way. I voted "NO" on Prop 8 here in California but I have tremendous respect for the Christian community and understand what they are trying to hold on to. (whether I agree or not - most I agree) calling the religious people bigots, hypocrites, homophobes, and to neglect their love and work for society is plain not smart.

Pssst.. The Jewish God and the Christian God are the same. ;) Just one happens to believe that a Jewish Carpenter/Community Organizer happened to be the son of God.
The Bible didn't define it. They overtook the meaning of Marriage to fit their set standards of morals and what they believed it should be. The bible also supported slavery, should we go back and start up slavery again?
The reason that this "fear" of gay marriage is because many are fearful of gays and feel uncomfortable as if some gay man will just jump them and rape them, and maybe they might just like it. I'm not gay myself and that lifestyle is something that I could never be a part of. But I have many friends who are and that doesn't diminish the fact that they are great people and deserve to show their happiness in their relationships by making a big committment to each other with marriage.
In my state, if this appeared on the ballot, it would be banned in a heart beat because of all the homophobes and religious people that honestly are quit crazy.
If religious people are so frightened of two people who are so in love getting married, maybe they are just what you claim they aren't. No matter how much they pray, they can't pray the gay away. Sadly, I get to see the worst of religious fruitcakes protesting to ban the rights of gays. I've seen the Phelps gang of the Westboro Baptist Church in this area far too often. They are not a church of love and understanding, but one of hate and discrimination.
My pokemon brings all the nerds to the yard. And they're like, "You wanna trade cards?" Damn right, I wanna trade cards. I'll trade this, but not my charizard.
