We could site many scientific studies & point to scriptures that support that God (or Creation) created us male and female to be partners, not 2 men, not 2 women.
Moreover, our very existence, as well as that of billions of other human beings prove this.
We could study anatomy to determine what parts fit & which parts don't, but we each have bodies & many of us have first hand proof of this.
The proof is in the pudding!
Trying to change reality by denying it is useless & even harmful, when forcing society to legally accept sexual deviations that prove to be harmful.
Even in 2 healthy males, anal sex involves risks of anal fissures, bacterial infections, anal cancer & colon rupture.
No wonder that the US CDC statistics show that those with homosexual preferences switch partners so often (they can't find the right fit) & in so doing, they contract & spread AIDS & STDs at a much higher percentage than heterosexuals do.
God/Creation intended men and women to procreate & for offspring to be cared for by both parents. Legally redefining marriage to be between 2 men or 2 women is denying children of the right to a mother or father. Research & thousands of years of history show that children need a mother & father to thrive best & need both to model how the opposite sex relates to one another.
Many argue that it's their "right" to love whoever they want.
Fine! I have no problem with that - except when they legally require society to honor that & harm children in the process.
Children have the right to not be taught homosexuality in school. Yet, in places where gay marriage has been enacted, these rights have been infringed upon. Here are a few examples where those with homosexual preferences have pushed their assumed rights, which infringed on the rights of others...
*Freshmen were told not to tell their parents about a pro-gay seminar & were required to sign a confidentiality agreement (Derrfield, Illinois Mar. 2007).
*In March, 2007, a Massachusetts high school banned parents from attending a seminar for students on how they can know they are homosexual.
*In October, 2008, First graders (6 year-old students) were taken on a field trip to watch their lesbian teacher's wedding.
*In Oct 2008, a Hayward CA public elementary school celebrated "Coming Out Day."
Normalizing & even encouraging children to explore homosexuality obviously causes more to experiment with homosexuality.
"The Legal Liability Associated with Homosexuality Education in Schools... This report is part of an integrated strategy to inform and educate parents, students and school officials across the nation of its contents and of their respective rights and duties. It has documented the concern that the health of students in many schools across the country may have been compromised and their First Amendment rights may have been denied."

Also, others' rights have been infringed upon in favor of supporting gay rights.
*In April 2008, an Albuquerque photographer was fined over $6,000 for refusing to be hired to photograph a lesbian couple's commitment ceremony.
*In May, 2008, a black administrator was fired from the U of Toledo, Ohio, for writing an editorial objecting to the comparison of black discrimination to same-sex marriage.
*An intolerant opponent of Proposition 8 even violently attacked & injured a Proposition supporter in Oct. 2008.
*On November 19, 2008, eHarmony, a Christian-based matching service was forced by New Jersey's Division on Civil Rights to provide website matching services for homosexuals.
Same-sex couples already have rights under common law marriage & cohabitation agreements. The only reason to legally redefine marriage is to try to legally force society to accept sexual deviations of a group, & in doing so harms society, especially the future of society: children.
