Yes you are. You don't think they should be allowed to use the word "marriage" to describe their unions. That is treating them differently than everybody else.

Not treating. Identifying. Huge difference.
When I see a gay man, I see a man. When I see a gay "marriage", I see something else.

I'll go back to my original post. If one doesn't support the idea of gay marriage, it means one doesn't support equal rights. That means one wants to discriminate against a group of people (i.e. they shouldn't have the same rights as everyone else - the right to use the word "marriage" for example). If one discriminates, that makes one a bigot.

What if I said I want the right to use the N-word?
Actually, you're a very good debater. Enjoying this thoroughly. Hope theres no personal offense here.
