Let me ask you, what would "homosexual marriage" bring to our country? Give me evidence. If you believe in it, why do you believe in it? Seriously, what is your basis for your argument?
What does it bring? Happiness for a long-oppressed minority. We all have a right to that, don't we? Evidence? What evidence can there be when it is not allowed by law? Might have well asked blacks why they needed the right to vote, or women for that matter. Has the black minority or suffrage really changed this nation? Probably not in the big picture of things, but that would be hard to prove. What it has done is moved the Constitution closer to perfection in that MORE Americans were guaranteed the right to vote. In enabling homosexual Americans to join in a legal union such as marriage, it is an acknowledgment that they are indeed citizens with the same rights and privileges that a heterosexual American can and does enjoy. Equal rights and protection under law is what ALL Americans are entitled to.
Oh, and I already answered "why" in the previous paragraph.
You have not been able to demonstrate WHY homosexual marriage is detrimental to this nation other than fuzzy references to "moral degradation" and "sin". Concepts that particularly personal in nature.
And quoting family.org is a typical move of a Christian. I don't mean this in a demeaning way, it is just that family.org is a blatantly conservative Christian site. It is the same as the arguments by Christians against homosexuality. Your argument that homosexuality is wrong because it says so in the Bible holds no water for someone that does not believe in the Bible as a "divinely inspired" book. Especially when the person you are trying to convince thinks that the Bible is pretty much a document that twisted historical facts, called them "miracles" and used the alleged divine source as a method of mind and behavioral control.
