So while people jumped all over knalus for opposing gay marriage for "no good reason", I have yet to see a good reason to allow gay marriage besides the ones I showed above. It's mostly just an emotional argument.
If you are going to deny a section of your community something, no matter what and for why, you need to show a reason for the denial, not the otherway round.

We don't allow children to drink as it is harmfull to them, we don't allow adults to use herion as it is harmfull to them, these are exceptions to freedom we allow the goverment to enforce on our behalf.

What harm does gay marriage do, either to individuls or society in general? If you can't think of any then you have t conclude gays should be allowed to marry regardless of your own opinion.
