SSM opponents are probably actually multiple groups, not a single, homogeneous group. magellan01, for example, has no connection to any group opposing SSM on religious grounds.

mswas has repeatedly stated that he favors SSM, but that he does not like the arguments employed by some pro-SSM people and, being an argumentative sort, he is battling what he considers to be bad logic.

So you are guilty of making baseless assumptions regarding at least two of your opponents and magellan01 is right that your great, broad tar brush is not appropriate to this thread.
