It's not a choice, like a sexual preference.
I don't have a problem with that. I also think that it is an entirely different issue. One does not choose to be black. I do not apprciate the comparason, and I bet that many black people wouldn't like it either.
Now i understand that you have nothing against homosexuality
per se, but from the above statements i take it that you believe homosexuality to be a
choice.
While this seems to be what the majority thinks, enough research has gone into homosexuality to know that it is, in fact, not a choice.

Regarding your reasoning as to why gay marriage should not be allowed. i take it you feel it could lead to the end of the human race
It represents how we survie, how you came to be, and how we will continue to live on.
I don't see how you reach this conclusion. If by allowing gay marriage, will heterosexuals suddenly stop reproducing?
One more point, and you might not agree with me here:
The perpetuation of the species is not a result of marriage, it is the result of sex. Marriage or no marriage, people will continue to have sex.
No matter how you put it, marriage is not necessary for the perpetuity of humanity. It is a cultural concept, religious or not.
So the only place from whence one can argue against gay marriage, is from a religious viewpoint. But you're not doing that...
So intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,
so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close.
