Where does the Constitution say it isn't a right?
Where does the Constitution say that marriage (straight or gay ) is a right?

Seems to me that this all boils down to ones religious beliefs. When I asked a question about why is gay marriage wrong; overwhelmingly the people who oppsed it did so because of their religioue beliefs. So lets call it a union, just give them all the rights and benefits that straight couples get when they get married, and I think then this will stop being a issue.

It's seems to people that if states allow gay marriages, we as a society will accept homosexuality , which I do. This I feel is where the real problem lies. People of faith are not willing to do so! They will never see homosexuality as anything more than a sinful lifestyle choice. As if any of us have a choice in regards to our sexuality. I don't remember making a conscience choice to be a heterosexual. I didn't flip a coin, or do eany meany miney moe, I just like women not men.
