Is there a secular reason to oppose gay marriage?

[hollowincome859]

Simply put, no. No logical reason exists that can oppose gay marriage other than 'appeal to tradition' arguments.

Well, limited government refers to keeping the government out of private lives, which can include the gay community, and give them the right to marry and join the military, for example, so it has much to do with it. Ironically, even though Republicans claim to support 'limited government,' clearly their ideology is *limited* only to fiscal economics, meaning they want the government limited...only to their money. "They're raising our taxes" cries cry as an opposition to big government. Their desire for limited government doesn't apply to social politics, considering how they use church and religion to control our privates lives, even in the bedroom. However, ironically again, the "free-market" harms developed society more than help it because less taxes drive the country into recessions, and the average person does NOT follow every aspect of the constitution. If they did, we'd have the right to marry centuries ago, and I literally mean centuries ago.
