Crouwel,
Your argument is incoherent. There are always exceptions to every rule.
Studies have shown that children thrive and develop best with a father and mother in a traditional marriage setting. Don't hate me, hate the studies which support this.
Ultimately, it comes down to how we define marriage. I believe that marriage was instituted specifically between 1 mand and 1 woman. This is marriage, by definition. If you do not have 1 man and 1 woman, you have something other than the covenant of marriage.
And as the article I linked effectively demonstrates using statistics and history. Marriage as defined any other way is not beneficial to the long term health of the nation. It is ultimately destructive.
Does this mean I hate gay people? Of course not. It simply boils down to believing that marriage is defined in a very exclusive way and that this covenant should only be observed in the proper context.
