Steve, some gay women oppose SS marriage for those reasons.
Not one of those issues you raise about traditional marriage are addressed by extending it to include SS couples.

Traditional marriage has been tinkered with before.
Different cultures have chosen some age restrictions, but the man to woman concept has been absolutely fundamental for ever.

Such a fundamental change is usually a generational thing, yet our generation has seen it come to pass in much less than a life time.
Just a few years.

Like you I welcome it, but I also respect the fact that many will take a little longer to come to terms with it.

Musket said that he wanted Ake to "be no more" because of it.
You generously assumed he meant no more on Mudcat, not dead.
Should over a third of the population of Ireland "be no more" because of their views?
Is that not a really bigoted view?
