As an atheist, one day i will chose to participate in the marriage ceremony without changing any of the guidelines of it. It'll look like any other marriage, be in a church, be done by a preacher, cake and tuxedos the whole 9. I wont offend anyone by doing this because im not seeking to change anything about it. I love christmas too.... i like christmas trees, christmas songs, christmas cookies, christmas lights and gifts and all of that too. I chose to participate in these things AS THEY ARE. Gay people shouldnt be allowed to change something that other's hold sacred. Nobody would deny gays the right to unite themselves under whatever label they chose or to have marital benefits. Nobody wants to stop gay people from being together. Gay people are the ones on the offensive here, seeking to alter anything that doesnt support their lifestyle. If you like marriage, then participate......... find you a nice person of opposing gender and enjoy everything marriage has to offer. If not, then dont participate. Your choice.
