And quite frankly the whole issue of taxes and medical care does not bother me either. You know why? Because no matter the issue taxes will go up and medical insurance companies will charge more for fewer services - whether you are single, married, have kids, don't have kids....

Like I've said over and over again in this thread, if given the opportunity to cast a vote on the issue I will vote against it. Not for tax reasons, not for medical reasons, not because I feel Johnny should have a mommy and a daddy (well, I do think all kids need both a mom and a dad, but I know that does not happen). I will vote against gay marriage because for me it is a moral and religious issue.
I'm not trying to challenge your beliefs. I just don't understand the percieved relationship between the moral/religious issue and the legal understanding of marriage. I was hoping that, Christian-to-Christian, you might shed some light on it for me. If you're tired of explaining yourself, ok.
