I think you're right on point, actually.
I think the real reason why homosexuals are demanding homosexual marriage has nothing whatsoever to do with equal rights because they already have equal rights. They are pursuing the homosexual marriage agenda for two primary reasons.
1. To poke a stick in the eye of Christians and Christianity
2. To be able to say that homosexuality is normal
Civil Unions wouldn't do those two things even if they conveyed every benefit that marriage does to homosexual couples. Therefore, civil unions were unacceptable. It had nothing at all to do with rights. This issue has been driven by homosexual militants. Most homosexuals I've know have had no interest in marriage for the sake of marriage. Many have told me that their homosexual lifestyle was about eschewing the "normal" model of marriage and kids.
What the long term consequences will be, no one knows because no society that endorsed homosexuality has stood the test of time and so we have no example to take a lesson from. But I think it's clear to see that in our country, the homosexuals will prevail. How it changes society in this country is something we can only guess about.
Bull. You people vote against civil unions too. And this contradicts your previous point about state endorsement of homosexuality. Civil unions would also be state sanctioning homosexuality.
See. This is why everyone knows the anti equality crowd is just acting out of spite. Their arguments contradict themselves.
