The fact that people oppose something like this so much appalls me. Who am I to say that two people love eachother can't get married because I don't agree with their lifestyles?

Ya I really don't think that's the issue, most people oppose this, don't oppose gay's, but oppose the changing the definition of the world marriage, which they have been brought up to believe its between man and woman.
Gays have had the same governmental rights as married couples via a civil union before this issue game up, they just wanted it to be called marriage too. And I find it funny this is an issue of equality to them, considering that marriage is a religious sacrament and most religions aren't in favor of gay couples.
