The fact that it is a religious belief that is propelling this argument makes it ten times worse. The religious sect wants to make it unconstitutional for same-sex marriage. Holy cow. How many civil rights are we going to take away from them next? How about, next they won't be able to adopt children, then they can't be in the same restaurant, oh! I know, they can't vote. I mean really. Not saying that those things will happen, just some exaggeration to make my idea clear. Yeah it's California's decision, but it'll be a the surrounding states problem when same-sex couples leave California to get married elsewhere and then move back to California.
It's not fair to take someone's right away. They are a human being they deserve the same rights as the person standing next to them, it doesn't matter where in the U.S. Who cares if it's their societal views, they can't tell someone they can get married to the person they love because it's of the same sex, that's not fair. And that shouldn't be how America works......
