I never generalized and made any claim that "All" or "most" supporters of gay marriage were intollerant, but I have seen more racist and intollerant rants from gay marriage supporters than I have ever seen from people who oppose it ...
I'm not religious at all and it doesn't impact me directly, but I have been in crowds of people where if you changed "Evangelical Christian" to "Jew" you'd feel like you were in Germany in the 1930's. For people who preach so heavily of tolerance and acceptance you'd think that gay marriage supporters would try to understand the arguments against it without resorting to stereotypes and scapegoating.

Fact: Gay People Exist
Fact: they are human
Fact: humans are allowed to do things
Fact: one of the things humans are allowed to do is to get married
Fact: 1+1+1+1= 4
if you have a counter to these facts, which is not ignorant, then i would love to hear it, as im not aware of any.

Well the same logic you use here would seem to indicate that it's wrong to make it so that guys can't enter a ladies room to use the bathroom.
Or play in womens sports or any other sort of thing.
Or that a co-ed sports team could have all guys.
Some things are dependent on sex. Whether that is right or not... who can say.

I can.
Male/female bathrooms are wrong because we're culturally taught that private parts are not for public viewing, which in turn, makes people want to look at private parts. There would be a lot of invasion of privacy if, in our culture, people were allowed to use the same bathroom.
As for sports, men and women are sized differently, with males usually being bigger and stronger.
There's a logical explaination for why men and women use different bathrooms and why they play on different sports team. There is no logical explaination for why gay marriage shouldn't be allowed.
