On the Con Side....

There are some, if not many, who do not agree with the modern-day issue at hand. They believe ignoring it or turning down any resolution is the way to put an end to it. However, it's plain to see that is not the case. People who are opposed to same-gender couples are doing whatever they can to stop the legalization of their marriage. Anti-gay and lesbian representatives are taking the prevention of same-sex marriages to a new level. Although I don't agree with their view-points, they do have some arguments on why it should not be legally allowed.
For one, religious morals. People, particularly religious leaders and representatives, hate the idea of same-sex marriages because according to their view of the Bible and other sacred books, it is total damnation. These same people also oppose homosexual marriage because it is unprocreative, which also according to some parts of religious books, is the main purpose of life.
Another reason Anti-activists reject the idea of same-sex marriage is because they think it will damage society. Families are only meant to be a husband, wife, and children. Any other obscure family situation is unfathomable to these simple-minded people.

Be careful with the Con arguments that are supported by the Bible. Many people that use religion as a basis for their decision on this topic, feel that gay couples can be legally united but should not be "married" because marraige is a religious term that binds a man and a women. This means that some people aren't against the actual uniting of these people, just the word used to do so.
