Marriage is something the majority of people in this country hold dear, are they also oppose this unnatural change. Why then, should we allow something so contrary to the very definition of the act, when the best argument people can muster to change it is that the current situation is "mean" or "unfair."

The best argument in favor of allowing gay marriage is that there is no reason based on the law or legal reasoning not to allow it.
