if this statement is in any way meant to be serious, then it is pathetic and condescending because it completely refuses to accept that the right to marry is equivalent to the right to marry a certain gender. If it's part of a serious argument, it is despicable.

Why don't I argue about love, morality, or the meaning of marriage of relationships? Because love is not something conferred on a relationship by a state; nor does state recognition make a marriage moral; nor does it give a marriage meaning.
However, the state currently does confer economic benefits on married couples. Hence, I argue economics.

Ok then, if this is the case I'd like you to give some evidence that gay marriage will pose a significant financial drain on society, and take into account that they pay into society as much as anyone else.
I find it impossible to accept that you should deny them a right they have themselves been paying towards.

if you like gay people, could you tell me why you wish to deny them a right they really want?
