Here's the amazingness of democracy, though: I can vote and express my ideals through our wonderful government. Other religions are free to do the same, as are people without any organized religion. If it passes that marriage also means between man and man AND woman and woman, then so be it. The population of our country voted for it and it was because of their ideals that they voted that way. I won't throw a hissy fit and I will still be a citizen of this country.
So, like I asked you before, you think it's ok for a majority to deny rights to a minority?
I know you think it's great and that the whole defense of "they voted for it, I'd just accept it if things were different" is noble and everything. But you are looking at is as part of the majority and basically what you're saying is that if these people want to have equal rights their should just be more of them. Which is just silly.
I don't think its ok for the majority to deny rights. Thats why I have said multiple times lets give them all the same rights, make it a federal law, and unturnable while we are at it. Just don't call it marriage, it effs with my religion and what I believe to be an eternal principle.
So we should let your religious beliefs govern our lawmaking.
Nope, but we should let the majority and their subsequent votes, which almost always ends up being based on their ideals.

As far as how it "effs" with your religion, I personally don't give a shit, but I totally disagree. Marriage within the Mormon church would not change one iota if the government passed a law allowing gays to get married and recognizing it as such. A law such as this would have no affect on your religion at all.
But if you think it would, please tell me how allowing to people of the same gender to get married at a courthouse would affect you personally as a Mormon.
Here's the amazingness of democracy, though: I can vote and express my ideals through our wonderful government.
America isn't a Democracy. It is a REPRESENTATIVE Democracy.
That means that we understand that it is a bad idea to make decisions based on the whims of the unwashed, so we allow them to elect representatives for themselves, who will then push the agendas of their constituency, while also being aware that sometimes their constituency is simply worng about something, and they need to go the other way on it.

This country has a rather illustrious history of the majority acting on their ideals, which others recognized as immoral and eventually overturned.

Before anyone calls Godwin (which doesn't apply to me, anyway) the following IS relevant.
Adolph Hitler was democratically elected. The Nazi regime was popularly supported.
Democracy is the BEST system out there (or as Churchill put it, it's the worst one, except for all the others) but it is NOT without flaws, and the idea that just because the majority supports something it is the "right" thing DOES NOT ring true.
Except for the fact that Hitler was never elected. And the Nazi party only took 44% of the vote mostly due to anti-Communist hysteria and still didn't have enough members in Parliament to establish a majority. But please continue.

I want them to have the same rights. But I also want marriage to remain sacred as defined within my religion. So, my answer is a compromise giving them all the same rights but not having it defined as marriage. If, in your eyes, that makes me a bigot, then so be it I guess.
If it has the exact same rights why call it something different when it's the same thing?
Because I believe that I have a Heavenly Father and Mother. That principle has extended to Earth through his children in which we are allowed to get married to continue that eternal progression. That union is a sacred eternal principle that is paramount to the happiness of God's children. As such, the institution of marriage should be defended on this Earth.
That's why it needs to be called something different. It may seem trivial to you, but its not to me.
You realize you're not the only religion around, right? Other religions have marriages too? Which is no different than gays getting married?
In short, you're incredibly stupid.
Well, then what merit does the government have in getting anybody married? Why should it be regulated by the government?
Because tax laws need to address a union, as well as property laws, next of kin, inheritance, and many other legal decisions. It's just the nature of the beast.
Before the government had this system set in place, with many perks for getting married, it was handled by the church. Now, tax laws for instance, the government recognizes the benefit of married couples getting together to create families. The value by married couples and families is great, and the government wants to encourage that so it adds perks and incentives to getting married.
It's not just being nice, its a recognition of an ideal state for its citizens. Gay unions on the other hand, are not as valuable to the state, these citizens do not create a family. Their value to the government is diminished because of that.
So some things like tax laws do not need to be changed, but other things probably do for the continuation of wealth and powers of attorney etc etc. People don't just deserve intrinsically all the perks of getting married. The perks are set in place because a male/female union is much more valuable then a homosexual union.
Welcome to the year 2009. There are things you may think, but then you should shut your mouth and not speak.
How is a gay union less valuable? Is money earned by gays taxed at a lesser rate? Do we not accept gay dollars? Do heterosexual couples without children offer less to the state, and should they be banned? Seriously, just fucking think for a second before opening your pie hole.
Seriously then, tell me to the state, what is more valuable.
