My only problem with recent events is cities like San Fran bypassing state law. My wife believes that by doing that San Fran is paving the way to change state law. I disagree, we live in a democratic society and the majority rules. Issues like this should be taken to the voters of the whole state (maybe even country) before it should be legalized. I don't have a problem with it, but, I do have a problem with the way people are going about it. That's my opinion what's yours?

It's called civil disobedience and it does work. Remember Martin Luther King Jr.? He defeated segregation laws by ignoring them and the same should be accomplished for the gays.
And religion should have nothing to do with the legal form of marriage. If it does become recognised by the state, the church still has the right to decide who can and can't marry in their church. If you go to a church that does not recognize gay marriage, then legal recognition of same-sex marriage would have no affect on you or your religion.
