From a truly biblical perspecrive:
The primary Christian argument refuting Homosexual Marriage is found in Genesis chater 2. After creating Eve, God says, "She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.' Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." Women and Men are meant to be together. In addition, Romans chapter 1 states that homosexuality is wrong because it defies reproduction. Homosexuality is a sin. That said, it might be viewed as disgusting and a source of decay to American morals, but that is not why Christians are concerned about it. Therefore, personally I am against Homosexual marriage,
BUT
my beliefs should not be federal legislation. There should be no problem with being a Christian and seeing that the government does not withold the biblical standard for marriage. Homosexuality itself is the sin and to make that illegal would be ridiculous. Limiting marriage does nothing in regards to the government other than limit the rights of people through not allowing them a "pursuit of happiness" and denying equal rights.
I don't understand the logic behind limiting marriage because if it's supposed to prevent sin, it's comparable to passing legislation against gluttony. If it is supposed to maintain a biblical standard which is set for marriage, it has no place in the government.
