To suggest everyone has to live by your  own  individual beliefs is preposterous and somewhat hypocritical. By  denying gays the rights to live as they choose religion are merely  turning the focus to their own legitimacy.Gay and lesbian couples have the same responsibility to pay taxes as  anybody else, they are bound by compulsory voting laws, they are not  exempt from jury duty or other responsibilities because they love people  of the same sex rather than the opposite sex. The Anti-gays often refuse to admit to the existence of gay Christians.   Thus, if allowing gay marriage &quot;infringes&quot; on the rights of those who  object.....doesn&#39;t banning gay marriage infringe just as much on those  who&#39;s religious beliefs support gays and gay marriage? &lt;br /&gt;
