So here is the crux of it, you wish to impart your morals on the society and any divergence from your morals is determined to be the prophetic downfall of civilization.
Yes, you can vote to try to push a moral agenda, or any other agenda, and I am glad we theoretically live in a country where this is allowed and encouraged. But don't be surprised when the same system that gaurantees your freedom to have a religion that your moral foundation is based upon, then affords someone else a privelage that you deem unworthy or immoral by the same voting.
I don't have a dog in the fight and could give 2 shts less either way. But wasting government time and money trying to regulate the things people do that has zero impact on others is what is really pointless. Smoke weed, but contribute to the society, fine. Live a ethical and honorable life, but marry (civil union, whatever) the same sex, who cares? It's the removing of our rights that should have everyone up in arms. The rights are what are common for every law abiding American. Everything else is just more fodder from the divide and conquuer playbook.
