As an opposite gender married person (love that BTW) I have a hard time with the argument that gay marriage somehow lessens, cheapens or damages my 'traditional marriage'. Conservatives use the bible to support their arguments, but haven't they shown (especially resently) that they themselves aren't living up to their own 'family values'?
