Just a few things that I know you'll proabably disagree with.

Same sex marriages are normal marriages. There is nothing abnormal about them. Two men loving each other is the same as a man and a woman loving each other which is the same as two women loving each other. All these relationships are largely the same with only minor differences. It is not until the question of religion is brought into the picture that anything can be said to be wrong about them. Why shouldn't they be afforded the same rights as all of us? A Justice of the Peace has the power to marry people outside the bounds of religion, which throws the whole sanctity of marriage and the church question right out the door, so why shouldn't a Justice of the Peace be allowed to marry same sex couples?
Likewise, if a prom is for the student body, then all members of the student body should be allowed to attend regardless of how others feel.
If our basic right to be free from persecution regardless of race, sex, religion or personal beliefs is to hold true it must hold true for all people in all circumstances and if you don't believe that you must be willing to accept persecution for yourself. You must be willing to be fired from a job for who you are, or to be denied anything for who you are.
