Same-Sex Marriage

Conservatives believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. They also believe that to accept same-sex marriage goes against the religion of Muslims, Catholics, and many other religious groups. Liberals believe that marriage should be available to all people no matter what the gender of the couple is. They also believe that in denying same-sex marriage goes against their civil rights.
I agree with the liberal point of view that two men have the same right to marry as a man and a women and vice versa. I also agree that it goes against the civil rights to not allow this. There are many things religious groups don't agree with and our laws in this country can't reflect that of any religion but of the equality of opportunity for all people.
