It's the Only Thing That There's Just Too Little Of...

Maybe I'm being naïve, but I just don't get what's so wrong or awful or incendiary about allowing two people who love each other to get married, regardless of any religious, racial, cultural, gender or language differences or similaries. I mean, we're talking about love here, right? That thing that Makes the World Go 'Round? The thing That There's Just Too Little Of? So, why wouldn't we want to encourage more of it?

I grew up in the (low) Espicopal church and don't remember anyone saying anything about who you could or couldn't love. God loves us all and commands us to love each other as we love ourselves. Does that mean in 31 states I'm only supposed to love a separate sex version of myself? And, if so, how, exactly, would I go about doing that?

This really is one of those shake my head sadly, just not getting it moments.
