It is the definition of "marriage" that is under question though.

Why is the definition so important? It's just a word.

Mike Huckabee was on The Daily Show last night, and that was his main defense for being against gay marriage.  Plus, he made the ridiculous claim (IMO) that if the US allows gay marriage then we will be forced to allow polygamy and other types of marriage.  I personally don't see the problem in redefining the modern idea of marriage as between two consenting adults, and leave it at that.  Marriage has been redefined countless times over the past few thousand years, and civilization survived.  If the Catholic church hadn't stuck its nose in back in the 1200's and then again in the 1500's I doubt this would be such a big deal now.

The protestant church hasn't exactly helped either.  Although, they seem to be more at ease with it, they're actually the main ones starting the fires in the debate.

You think that a photograph is indisputable evidence?  Would you like me to show you a photograph of Barack Obama having sex with a gorilla?
