It always amazes me what people don't learn with a public school education and what they learn that isn't true.


Perhaps you could give us an example of a contract to which you personally are denied by US law because you are a heterosexual.


John Boswell in his book THE MARRIAGE OF LIKENESS details the history of same-sex unions/marriages in the pre-modern world.  Among others, the Catholic church married and blessed the union of Saint Serge and Saint Bacchus with a ceremony that is still in the liturgy today.


Homosexuality is a normal variant in human sexuality just as it is in most of the animal world, an excellent work on this subject is Bagemihl's BIOLOGICAL EXHUBERANCE.  You really should keep up on your reading if you are going to discuss these kinds of issues.


As far as I know there is no valid reason why gay people should be denied marriage equality.  I know this won't satisfy you, any more than Obie's birth certificate would satisfy a birther, because this is an emotional issue for you just as it has become for the birther movement and truth no longer matters.
