I only wish I could have put it as simply and cleanly as you have here.
Without going into any sort of slope- remove "marriage" from the statements, and then answer this-
"Why is it wrong for a gay couple to be afforded the same right as the rest of us?"
That is my concern here. You're removing their ability- read: their right- to do the same thing that the rest of the population take for granted, state-by-state.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness."
We have a right to life, hence murder is illegal. A right to liberty, hence wrongful imprisonment is illegal. A right to the pursuit of happiness. Well, in 19 states, where marriage for gay couples is happiness, their option to pursue that very thing, has been made impossible.
How is that fair TO THEM?
