I really don't give a shit what someone's religion says about gay marriage. The arguments against it are the same arguments, dressed up differently, against the repealing of miscegenation laws. It's all about "what can I come up with that the Bible says that I can twist into what I want it to say."
If you want to vote your conscience, fine. If you want to vote your religion? And it interferes with the Constitutional rights of another group? To hell with you. And I don't mean you specifically, it's a general you.
Can you tell that I really loathe the argument of, "my religion says it's bad and icky, so it's okay to make laws against it." No, it's NOT okay.
