Although I do not oppose same-sex marriage, I can think of two good arguments against it.

1. Children. Having two dads or two moms can lead to extra teasing/bullying when they are older. Such children will also have to hear devout Christians condemn their parents to hell.

2. Family. Unless both spouses have wonderful liberal families, having a homosexual marriage is bound to cause a lot of feuds.

The thing is those arguments are pretty valid for any type of hate-attracting marriage (interractial, different religions, different social backgrounds, etc...). Funny enough the only cure to these issues is to have people go through the whole hardship process of being cast against (as well as their children), until such marriages become commonplace.
