These people would vote against gay marriage without religious conviction, so would you also deny these people their right to express their views through the vote.
But why be against gay marriage if you think homosexuality is unnatural? Marriage isn't natural in and of itself. It's a human construct.
What does denying homosexuals the right to marry have to do with your feelings that homosexuality is unnatural?
