The idea of a constitution for entire country is somewhat dated. We are not so unified in our beliefs and ideals that each and every state and county should be held to one judgement, especially one that is so objective (or is it subjective?). At any rate, there is no way that the country can make a blanket judgement as to what is socially acceptable when there are so many societies within our country.
I personally couldn't care less if gay marriage is recognized or not. But, I understand the fight for the right to be recognized like anybody else. Hell, I'd be fighting it if there were a law against inter-racial marriage. In fact, I may not even be here if that happened in the 60's.
Bottom line, I bet gay marriages last longer than traditional marriages anyway, so why fight it? It's not like gays are going to all of the sudden figure out how to procreate. Wait, they already do that through adoption, don't they? So what exactly is anyone arguing against?
Let people live their lives as long as it doesn't directly affect other people.
