While we lack a anti-gay marriage debater, I'll see what I can do, for the record I am pro-homosexual everything, being one it kind of helps.

You cannot deny it is harmful to the reproductive system that the human race is based upon, fecundicity is the prominent evolutionary heuristic and as homosexuals refute this they are contradicting the healthy development of the human race

Quote by: Winter wind It is not a choice (may not be genetic, but decided so early in childhood that it really doesn't make a difference). This is supported with evidence from the American Medical Association, American Psychiatric Association, and common sense. |
I do not deny that homosexuality is not a conscious choice, yet if it is enviromentally affected then homosexuality can be averted and recovered from. Change the environmental factors or attempt to change your perceptions of them and it may be possible to change sexuality.
There is no solid evidence of a gay gene and there is a lot to contradict it, so we shall leave that for another day on the grounds of lack of information.

Quote by: Winter wind ".In a 2004 paper, psychology professor Lawrence Kurdek of Wright State University in Ohio reported that over a 12-year period, 21% of gay and lesbian couples broke up; only 14% of married straight couples did." |
Simple mathematics suggest from those figures that heterosexual couples are 7% less likely to split up, this causes less damage to society and it's knockon effects, it is in society's best interests to have lasting marriages, as gay marriages are not so strong then they should not be allowed to legally marry.

Quote by: Winter wind For the final question, why ban it? |
Heterosexual marriages are stronger, they have the ability to procreate, they provide a stable base for rearing a child, where as a child raised by homosexuals will face major issues in later life because they have homosexual foster parents. Homosexuality though it's members do contribute to society they do not contribute as much as heterosexuals, I think they should be allowed to marry, but with less rights and privellages for the above reasons.
