You missed the entire point of my post.

I'm not defending or attacking gay marriage (I happen to support a wall of separation between marriage and state ... it offends me that I had to pay the state for the privileged of marrying my wife).

My point is only that 1) opposition to gay marriage is NOT the imposition of "Judeo-Christian values" since opposition to homosexuality pre-dates both religions (and is part of most of the worlds religions, past and present). and 2) this is the first time in history that gay marriage is being seriously considered, so its not like those that oppose it are some odd outliers that are rejecting something that has always been considered a common right (like the right to arms for instance).
