Yep...that answers every point I've heard against it.
I find it amusing listening to those against try to argue against it...It seems to go something like this (taken partially from context from a recent interview on Hardball):
"Gay Marriage will effect all other marriages." "How?" "Well, marriage is traditionally between a man and a woman and they're trying to change that." "OK, but how does it effect my marriage if Ted and Bob upstairs want to get married. Honestly, the start of the baseball season will effect my marriage more than them getting married." "Well, I'm sorry to hear that baseball will effect your marriage. But, it will Bob and Ted getting married will effect you too." "BUT HOW?!?"
They don't seem to say anything, aside from "the sanctity" of the marriage. Well, given that the Divorce rate is as high as it is, what about all those people? How sanctified were their marriages? Gay marriage didn't effect them. Also, the excuses the other side are offering up (such as that it's ruining religious organizations due to state regulations against them, such as a Catholic adoption service being told they can't discriminate and choose not to adopt to a gay couple as long as they're stable and meet all requirements otherwise).
