There is no way to really "win" this argument. I, for one, am for gay marriage but can completely see why people would be against it.
I think that civil unions are the answer, as they would give all the same rights to a couple, but would not use the word "marriage."
Sadly, most of my liberal brethren would not be happy with that, because they're so far gone that they would still think that was unequal, which means that we would be fighting for equality in words -- which is a most absurd notion when every right equal to marriage would be bestowed on these couples.
The reality is, that this issue just won't ever stop being an issue. But my generation is full of a disproportionate percentage of people who are for gay marriage -- so it's only a matter of time before we're the majority....and then true equality will occur.
