Because it is a big deal. Not to you, but to other people. And through the freedoms we enjoy by way of a democratic process of government, people like you are able to project your hesitations and fears onto the rights of others; The very same rights that you, yourself, take for granted and enjoy as though it were a way of life that everyone ought to be entitled to.
You think that allowing gays to be married will make you unhappy? How the do you think they feel every day of their lives where they are by all other means equal citizens with yourself, save for the way they feel they were created?
You seem to think you have some duty to uphold tradition, for the sake of an admittedly undeniable historical process of segregation - but why? Why is history more important then people living today? People that could possibly enjoy their freedom in the same way that you do, but can't because, again, people such as yourself are resigned to the misbegotten notion that approving legal recognition for a paltry process such as legal marriage would somehow detract from the sanctity that heterosexual people have upheld - which, I might add, they have done an absolutely abysmal job at doing - and in turn would have any personal impact on anyone, apart from the seemingly newly recognized citizens?
You think that your personal beliefs do not matter, that it's ok to vote and to approve based on faith, that the governmental process that seems so far removed from an individual such as yourself, could not possibly matter in the least. But it does. And the sooner that hundreds of millions of people realize this, the sooner we can make your precious history. |

Okay. You can have the last word. |

| No, now we are going to focus this discussion on your mother and how her conservative, Mexican-catholic upbringing has allowed for her to affect you so deeply into your 20s. |

My mother's dead, so please have a little respect. And, for the record, my family's not religious--at all. |
