Most Expensive Social Issue

I am VERY VERY disappointed about amendment 2. =( I think first of all, the people who voted were VERY uneducated about what the amendment is saying. It's not just about the gay marriage, there's more to it and lots of voters didn't know that. I personality read the amendments on the ballot and was like..huh?, wth? The wording they use is very confusing to not just me but a lot of people.

I think that marriage should be between two people who love each other and want to spend the rest of their lives together. Off course, a lot of marriages don't work out and this is where divorces happen, but for some people, marriage is the greatest thing that ever happened to them. I don't think it should be limited to a man and woman. Why does it have to be between a man and woman? I don't think there's anything wrong if you're gay. I think it's wrong that gay people aren't allowed to be married. I really don't see how it make sense. If two gay people are together for their whole life, what's the difference if they're married? I mean, if they live together and all, they're practically "married" so why can't they get an officially paper that says they're married? I just think it's wrong to stop certain people because of the way they are.

I think the people who oppose to gay marriage are very religious, not that I have anything against them or their religion. I just think that they take religion into a deeper level than it is. Everyone is like, oh the Bible says no. My opinion on the bible can go on forever but I have to say that, it's a literature and it's written by PEOPLE! Aside from that, people stand behind what they believe in very strongly but I don't think they should make judgments based on a book. Different religions have different meanings of marriage so which on is right? So I guess certain religions will accept gay's and some won't? I don't understand.

All I have to say is that LET THEM CHOSE WHAT THEY WANT! Why should it concern you? Many people have gay friends and they have no problem with it but if they get married, you're going to have a problem with that? Make sense? Not to me! You should accept them for who they are.
