While there is hostory of success with oneman/one woman, thats an argument FOR traditional marriage, not against gay marriage. Their concerns are mainly based on conjecture based on "what might happen" and "society acceptance vs. governmental acceptance". It's an interesting and I think considerable argument when it comes to public policy, much more so than a biblical one that is ruled out because of theocratic implications, but in the end not the correct one, IMO.

What would happen if we allowed homosexual marriage? It wouldn't infringe of the rights of heterosexual marriage....gay couples could adopt kids desperately in need of families...it would stimulate the economy....
I can't really think of any cons.
