I read an interview with James Dobson, the guy who heads Focus on the Family, and his position was basically.... "if we don't protect traditional marriage then the family as we know it could fall apart and fewer people will get married and society could collapse so it has to be protected".
They are probably the biggest group against gay marriage in the States and that's what he thinks.
I gotta admit that if he believes in that then he should do whatever he can to fight it. BUt why would he believe that? Can anyone answer that?
Marriages shouldn't be that fragile. They aren't. Guys don't marry women just because they can't marry men. Nothing will change. People won't be "taken off the market". Nobody who wants a "traditional marriage" will be persuaded to do something else.

A very flawed argument. Is he saying that right now gay people are going, "Aw screw it! I might as well marry straight and procreate."? Does he think an unhappy gay parent stuck in a heterosexual relationship is a healthy parent?
