Because "homophobic", like "xenophobic", has shifted a bit in meaning... Legolas Send a noteboard - 12/08/2010 07:33:56 PM
and now means "anti-gay" more than "afraid of homosexuality".

And then since reasons against gay marriage are generally based on being anti-gay, despite Cannoli's hilarious attempts to come up with other reasons, well, there you go.

Simple, require the legal and religious marriage to be performed separately. Legolas - 12/08/2010 02:58:43 PM 986 Views
And they are, in fact, separate right now in the US. They're just called the same thing. Sareitha Sedai - 12/08/2010 03:29:26 PM 1033 Views
It's not the same name that's confusing so much as the single ceremony. Or so it seems to me. Legolas - 12/08/2010 03:37:20 PM 1043 Views
I disagree. I think giving the legal institution the same name as the sacrament is the problem. Sareitha Sedai - 12/08/2010 03:59:43 PM 1056 Views
