One is freeing, and the other is binding.
I'm sorry that you do not see this what is to me a glaring contradiction.

civil ceremonies are expressions of love? accepting religion is binding, accepting gay marriage is freeing -- but marriage
is binding, no?
i don't think i'm the one with cognitive dissonance here.
as i said i don't really care about the issue, i'm more or less neutral. views like yours are what bother me: the inverse ignorant; deluded by your own delusion. people voting for Obama on the sole basis he was black. let's wrap religion up in a neat little causal envelope like we've got it locked. we don't. people are the cause of shit -- no let's blame one of our constructs instead and avoid the actual issue.
also, ancient greeks had religion, too - huge pagans. a religious people formed logos: from whence logic is derived but HEY RELIGION ILLOGICAL. they were also gay as fuck.
oh well, love prevails.
