Yeah right.

letting people do what they want to do is definitely not a freedom

I think both sides of this debate are ridiculous. The religious gay folk apparently want their union to be holy - so why do you need an official priest to do that? Holy is in the mind, so have yourself put some religious meaning into the ceremony and you have yourself a marriage.

The people who are fighting against it are worse. They're trying to keep a definition unchanged. Honestly, what does it matter? We get it, you're homophobes and think that gay relationships are lesser than straight ones, but that's no reason to refuse two people the right to do something anyone straight could do. It doesn't taint your marriage. You have no reason to refuse it.

In essence, both sides are just trying to fight for some extra meaning put into something that's subjective. If you tell yourself your union is holy, then it is. If you tell yourself that gay marriages aren't holy, then they aren't. Problem solved.
