If we have a law for or against something, then that makes it morally right/wrong. So along this line of thinking, in order to accept a law that permits the marriage of homosexual couples, they would have to accept it as moral. Ironically, laws and morality seem to rarely converge, and so far, laws seem to do very little to prevent people from actually doing anything they want to do…but its a nice illusion anyway. I don’t agree with homosexuality, but I am not sure why I would want to force people into my belief system via the legal system….something tells me that doesn’t actually work….
