The thing that angers me about gay marriage is not that gays want to get married or that some people don't want to let them, it's that this "issue" carries so much weight in elections.

I mean it's an issue that has real world ramifications for a LOT of people. It also reveals how some people think a book of fairy tales should govern how others operate within the framework of our society or how others can show compassion and understanding. Being gay is the leading cause of teen suicide so I think it's important from that issue alone. I also think it's a great political litmus test whether you think your personal "religious" beliefs should govern others and what role that should actually have in government.
