I think there should be a ban on people who want to ban gay marriage because hatred is "un-natural"

this is a matter of perception. especially since my religious right friends and i see nothing hatefull about what we just did. nothing at all.
even though we get accused of it time and time again. and regardless of how many times we get accused of it, we still dont see it that way.
basically from our point of view we were forced to protect ourselves.

Protect yourselves from WHAT? Are gay married couples trying to break into your house & rob you?
Are they trying to stop you from being marrried?
Are they protesting funerals of American Soldiers? No, that would be radical christians.
Are they letting their leaders molest kids and then try to protect them from prosecution? No, that would be the catholics.
If anything, we need protection from out of control, self righteous christian fanatics!

when a bill is introduced condeming them all to a deserted island. or some other bill which prescribes a severe legal punishment for being involved in the lifestyle, then you claim hatred. and since homo sexualls are already protected under federal law from having to endure this type of punishment, i think they are being treated fairly.

When a group of people are being denied over 100 rights by law as the rest of us, how can you say that is being treated fairly.

till then you can accuse us of being biggots a thousand times, and at the end of the reduntant rant, were still going to believe that we protected the moral fibre of america, the most basic and nessecary social unit of our society.

Same arguement was used against interacial marriages not that long ago.

marriage is a spiritual thing.

If marriage was only a spritual thing I wouldn't have a problem, but since not allowing a certain group of people to be married denies them the same equal rights as everyone else I have a problem.

besides i dont really believe this is going to be the end of this issue.

I agree, it won't be the end of this issue because there are people who will always believe in and fight for equal rights for all!
