It has been allowed for many more years where I live, and I think my country surprised the world by not being absorbed into hell and suffer the seven plagues after gay marriage is allowed 
When I was a Christian, I was annoyed with dogmatic condescending Christians. Now that I'm an atheist, I'm annoyed with dogmatic condescending atheists. Just goes to prove that people are the same, regardless of what they do or don't believe.

I like being in a one to one relationship. I'm close-minded because you provide me an attribute which I do not have?  Marriages are often enough unhappy. I don't know a single happy marriage. I only know a few that are in a happy monogamous relationship. And those probably won't stay so happy when tested over time. I never would suggest that monogamy necessarily means unhappiness. However, in all of my experience, the longer one is with someone else, the more they dwell on the bad things about them.

Only I'm not a gay person and rights are illusory and I insult everybody (including myself). Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Note that this thread is about marriage. Observe: "If you marry go ahead and be miserable all your life..." Being married usually means one becomes unhappy, and being polyamorous a marriage would be even more limiting. It seems like hypocrisy to you... but my position has really been unchanged since my first post in this thread

Well...then I must thank the Gays in New York for giving this straight guy a chance to marry another straight guy. More freedom is better than less

Also, some freedoms are not worth the trouble.

He might want to change his mind, one more choice can't hurt,  Unless it was me, the back pain and the smell would be too much.
