I've always wondered why people who aren't gay are so opposed tothe idea of
gay marriage being legal.  What are the reasons?  Does it take away from
some pot of tax dollars?  I was under the impression getting married tended
to work against you when it came to paying taxes.  I guess it becomes a
religious thing then.  Or are they just using the church to mask their fear
that some gay guy might try and hit on them?  I guess I just figure if some
gay couple wants to get married, let them, all it can do is generate revenue
from al lthe money a wedding costs. :)  Maybe someone could enlighten me as
to why it's such a bad thing.
