    What are your reasons that homosexuals couples should not have the right to marry? How will it negatively affect you?
    You are asking a cyclical question. Marriage is a union between one man and one woman and is special. Two men should not be able to get married because there is not one man and one woman. A man marrying a toaster wouldn't overtly affect me in any way either.

    What is marriage? Why do we have it? What are your reasons why a man shouldn't marry a toaster? Because it is ludicrous and is obviously not a marriage. I stand by the right of the people to enact ludicrous laws, but not to have them imposed on us.

    I believe that society should be able to decide which types of relationships it admires most. Neither men nor women are excluded from the practice of marriage, but fetishists can't warp the institution at their leisure. There is no discrimination - marriage in the State is open to all and is a privilege - not a right.

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
