The most popular answer I hear when asked "why sholdn't gays be allowed to marry" is "because it defiles the sanctity of marriage".
You know what else "defiles" the sanctity of marriage?
Divorce.
There is no "sanctity" anymore, so that answer is bullshit.
In a world that needs as much love as possible, it's a god damned shame that people are trying to put obstacle up to prevent it. Love is love, regardless of gender, and I abhore the notion that it should follow "guidelines".
Gays are human as well. They should have just as many rights as anyone else.
