My point was that such a big deal was made out of her statement. I followed the story through various atheist websites and gay websites that labelled her a bigot when there wasn't anything bigoted about her response (this was before any other details had emerged btw).
Even I support her viewpoint. I'm a secularist; I don't think religion and government should be connected in any way. That means that marriage shouldn't be state supported, and should be a purely religious matter. If some religions want to allow gay marriage whilst others deny it, that is up to them. So in that respect, I'm against gay marriage because I'm against any form of state-sponsored marriage.
