20. They are trying to defend the traditional family
Let me first state that I DO NOT oppose gay marriage. They have been warned as to the state of marriage in the US "marry at your own risk."

I think the reason so many people oppose it is that they look around and see marriage has become the new version of "going steady". A meaningless institution that people get in and out of without a care. They are of course wrong in this thinking as homosexual marriage has nothing to do with it.

I do agree with them that the dicorce rate and the frequency of single parent homes is disturbing.
