The Mayor of San Francosco has said that this is is the contemporary equivalent of the black civil rights legislation.

I'm with that. Banning gay marriage is another form of aparthied.

It says some people can do somethng, but another class of citizens may not.

Marriage is not just a religious institution. Its a legal institution. It enables inheritence, social security payments, all manner of legal rights. A religious argument is a misleading argument which bypasses the legal impact of such a ban.



That is, once again, an ornately crafted mischaracterization.

All the rights you describe would be available through civil union, without imposing restrictions on religious beliefs and freedom.
Again, there is a larger, and deceitfully cloaked agenda, as my example of what is already being enacted to repress religious freedom in Canada makes clear.

If equal legal rights were the true issue, civil union would be satisfactory.

The real goal of gay activists is to shut religion, and specifically Christianity, out of the system, and out of public speech.
