I'm Jewish. While I realize that I am not of the majority religion in this country, I do not base my moral beliefs on the bible or the church whatsoever.

Let's pretend I was gay and wanted to get married. Do you think I should be denied this human right just because it conflicts with someone else's religious beliefs?

What if Judaism became the majority religion? Would it then be ok for me to impose my beliefs on non-Jews?

Just curious.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By allowing gay marriage you are not really affecting those who are not gay. Straight people will still be able to get married. Virtually 100% of those people who are against gay marriage are not gay.
Question: If gay marriage was "legal" but churches, insurance companies, etc. refused to recognize the union or give them the same benefits...wouldn't they be able to be sued? Wouldn't this affect Straight people? This couldn't happen in a vacuum. This will affect other people because they will have to do everything from performing the ceremonies to changing policies etc. You may have some ministers being sued because of this. This is ONE way gay marriage affects those who are non-gay.
