Oh and i support gay marriage for all those confused.
I think it absolutely comes down to the separation of church and state. A church has the right to accept or reject whomever it chooses. This country does not have that right when it comes to its citizens. Everyone should be able to marry the person they love and build a life with. Anything else is in violation of the 14th amendment, in my opinion.
