Rights

A right that relates to my issue is the right to get married. Currently it is a right that is only granted to heterosexual couples. Some may not consider marriage as a right that should be granted to all, but many disagree with that. It is debated because some believe that if the right to marry is granted to homosexual couples it will lower the value of the marriages of others. Another argument is that if one can define marriage outside one man and one woman then it could potentially lead to a complete lack of sanctity in regards to marriage. I understand the desire to keep marriage a sanctified institution, but don't understand how gay people marrying could possible de-sanctify that institution. The way the law currently stands is discriminatory.
