Allowing gays to marry a member of the opposite sex is not any better than
not
allowing them to marry at all.


You say that as if gays were prohibited from marrying a member of the
opposite sex. They're not.



There are numerous benefits, all of them regarding legal standing, to
marriage as acknowledged by the government. It is those rights that gays
want and deserve.


They have them now.



Same-sex "marriages" happen all the time already.


Same-sex marriage does not exist.
