Hmmm..what would I do if it was me who would not be able to marry. Well, if there was a case in which the homosexuals were a majority, there would not be anything that could be considered close to the definition of marriage.
Of course it was hypothetical but your missing the point, Gay people have every right to marry as well and the definition of marriage has changed over many 1000's of years.

Quote:Friend, I certainly would not remain for too long in a land like that. I'd sooner or later realize that it's destined to crumble in a very short time.
As I said, when you think "opposite" you realize that such a society cannot ever be put into use, and is therefore irrelevant when it comes to empathy.
What if that was the only land you could be in? and of course it would crumble but your missing the point I am trying to put you in a position to see the other side and how gay people see it. At least try and put your self in a gay persons shoes for a second. Heterosexual people have so many benefits over Homosexual people and I can list them if you like. And what is so wrong about letting gay people marry?
I tell you what if letting Gay people marry globally distorys the world as we know it (as in bring mass hysteria and Armageddon type destruction on a global scale) I will give you £1m (or $1,612,000 at the current exchange rate)or the equivalent amount.
