Step in the Ring

Marriage is a union that has been around since the beginning of time. Humans have always felt the need to link themselves with another by the signing of a paper and the exchange of a few words. But should this right to commit be limited to those of traditional attraction?
Many people deem marriage a sacred union between a man and a woman the gay/lesbian need not apply. They feel that it is unnatural and goes against God and the teachings of the Bible. How can it be right for a man to love a man?
These people, though many keep their voiced raised only in the voting, some act in a more extreme manner. They ridicule and harass many of the gay/lesbian/supporters.
On the other side, millions of people fight for the right to choose any gender in marriage. Not only gays/lesbians/bis are actively fighting, so are many people with equality as motivation. They argue that religion has nothing to do with it. Church and state are separate and so must the ruling be. They see limiting their love life as a direct violation of their human rights. They also wonder how people can’t fight so passionately against something that doesn’t really affect them.

      So what do you think? Is marriage a union for men and women only, or should we all be welcome to say ‘I do’?
