i just think that when you allow two gays to have a union and call that action a marriage you are saying that marriage can be understood apart from procreation and that makes zero sense.
Where does it say marriage is strictly for procreation? The Bible? Now you're getting into religious issues which shouldn't be relevant given separation of church and state.
The bottom line is, the fundamental difference between those for or against gay marriage is that those against still think gay people actually choose to be gay, rather than being born that way. Which is what really makes zero sense.

I am just letting you know how the definition of the word came about. The only reason the word has existed in human societies and civilizations was to regulate from a social point of view the obligations and responsibilities attendant upon procreation. I see absoultely no reason to change definitions of words just because you feel like doing so.
When you start playing games this way you are actually acting as if the institution of marriage has no basis independent of your own arbitrary whim. That is crazy to me.
I am all for gays being allowed to have a union and tat union being recognized but to call that action a marriage is crazy.
