Okay, seriousness time. There's something that's been bothering me a lot lately, in light of the California supreme court declaring the gay marriage ban unconstitutional. There is a huge backlash here of people who want to amend the constitution to re-instate the ban, and I am... baffled as to how they can live with themselves. They're actively working to make other people suffer, and for fuck's sakes, they _have to_ see this. They have to see the profound sadness in homosexuals who cannot marry. They have to see how much it hurts these people.

How can they live with themselves? These are "normal" people who like to think they're good, and yet they're doing something so... evil.

Simple.

They think that the majority would be hurt by gay marriage as much as the minority (i.e. homosexuals) are hurt by no gay marriage.

I have, literally, no idea how they think that, but that's pretty much the gist of the anti-gay-marriage arguements as I understand them.

I think the biggest fear is that they don't want their children exposed to the idea of what's out of the norm to them. Plus, it would mean altering their world and that censorship would basically die a horrible death. Which is no good for them. :D
