Copy this sentence into your LiveJournal/blog/whatever if you're in a heterosexual marriage, and you don't want it "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage hurts it somehow.
From Jeff's Gameblog.
I almost commented on that blog, but I just started reading it -- I've never conversed with these folks before.
Here's the response I would have added:
If you think that marriage is purely a religious affair, then it should be removed from State recognition completely.
If the State recognizes it as a "legal" arrangement, then it should in no way discriminate against participating citizens.
I say, remove the term "marriage" from all legal documents, or stop discriminating based on the prejudices of your forefathers. Otherwise, keep your religion to yourself, and stop trying to push it into a government of the people, by the people and for the people.
'Cause it's not just "your" people -- it's ALL people.
There you go.
