What two gay people (or straight people for that matter) do has little or no impact on your life. I seem to understand the question as how is "straight" marriage (at its current state) beneficial to the society?
...heh...
Any society needs reproduction. Marriage is an institution, with its goal to better society. Contrary to common belief, people don't just get married if they're in "love". With that being said, heterosexual marriage betters society through pro-creative activity. And homosexual marriage? Well, I'm still waiting fr an answer on that one.
In my opinion tolerance and equal rights for all people is a much more important trait to have in your society than extensive pro-creative activity. We have enough trailer park hicks living off beer and chicken wings, and I like to think that I am not insecure to the point where I have to give a damn whether two people that care about each other are living together as a married couple.
I'm really not sure what you're trying to offer here. Obviously, you support gay marriage, but is it beneficial?
Yes, people being compassionate and accepting their fellow human being as they are is beneficial to society.
So if it would be beneficial to accept people for who they are, by your criteria, people marrying minors and pedophiles shouldn't be attacked in anyway, because that's just who they are, right?
