We let people who are infertile get married. So?

What are you talking about? They don't need to be married to love eachother or spend the rest of their lives together.

Some people are really offended by it. Most religious. The world has existed for 4.6 billion years...and no Gay marriages. Bible: This is a covenant with your love and God... married people go to heaven together... and live there for eternity with their family...

What do you think God's gonna say when 2 dudes float up there? This is "blasphemous". I, myself am not particularly religious, but many people are christian and would see this as something very offensive.
