I'm against it, but I don't really care much about it.
The religious crap isn't what bothers me, but rather the social implications. Marriage has always been between a man and a woman... it's an important and well-established tradition in our society. Allowing same-sex couples to be legally married changes the definition of marriage. I don't like change.
Also, it could create a slippery slope... what sorts of marriage will be legalized next?

That if a gay couple adopted a child, the child would have trouble understanding why there is 2 guys together or 2 women together, also the child might turn gay because his/her parents are gay; children look up to their parents and their parents are kind of their role models. Plus there is the matter of getting picked on, because he/she has gay parents.
I kind of agree with this. Think of the children!
If same-sex marriage is legalized, I imagine lots of people will have difficulty getting used to it...
