I support same-sex marriage because one of our inalienable rights is 'pursuit of happiness'. The government can only infringe that right if there is a compelling state interest. The only compelling interest the government has in marriage is that it is a contract, and the government has to be able to resolve contractual disputes. The alternative would be pistols at 20 paces. The government's interest is the same regardless of the gender of the people entering into the contract. Whether it is called Marriage or something else it has to be the same for everyone, the government can't discriminate. (Well, it is not supposed to anyway.)
