It's probable that most of the country is like me on this issue, I
really don't give much of a damn about it one way or the other.
But, if
you put it on a ballot and asked me to choose, Marriage is a social
institution and society should be able to dictate what it considers
acceptable. But this isn't a defining issue for me at all.

Correct. Many of today's wedge issues are irrelevant to most people.
The Sierra Club makes an issue of the Alaska National Wildlife
Refuge,
but I don't expect to ever go there, and am much more concerned about
river access, parklands near home, and useless traffic lights that
exacerbate pollution while cars idle. I've never heard the Sierra
Club
advocate removing or flow-timing traffic lights! And yet it could
probably reduce pollution more than scrapping every SUV in the
country.

Here, here, I am with you on this one Bill! TnT
