Brainwashed to think that those that think different from you are dumb and bigoted from your small exclusive cliques that you belong to. |
You're brain washed to think that there's such a thing as 'traditional marriage'. Traditional marriage was between one man and many women. Marriage has been evolving over time. I'm not the brain washed one here. There's no reason gays shouldn't be allowed to get married, except for stupid old texts written by men of primitive societies, and people's own irrelivant opinions about it being gross or wrong.
If someone thinks gay marriage is wrong and does not support it, they're a bigot by definition: 'a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion.'
What they're a bigot against, gay marriage, is an injustice. I'm a bigot myself, against illogical people. There's no rational basis for why gays shouldn't be allowed to get married, except ignorant opinions based on cultural or religious values.

For once, I actually agree with you. While I am straight, and disagree with the whole thing, I won't pretend like I can decide whether or not gays can marry. If they want to, that's fine with me. There's really no reason, outside of my religion, as to why they can't and my religion isn't everyone's religion. All I ask is that they don't try and force to be a part of my religion (which they have tried to do locally).

@ WessleWoggle's "There's no rational basis for why gays shouldn't be allowed to get married, except ignorant opinions based on cultural or religious values."
I've been giving this a lot of thought and I wonder as to why said cultural demographic fiercely opposes it. We may never know why they do it and for what reasons, but it clearly seems that many of them, not all of them, but a considerable size of the demographic have 'invested' a whole lot of pride in the issue.
