In terms of gays being "just like us", I'd like to say that whatever the differences are, same gender marriage ought to be "just like" opposite gender marriage. Same commitments, same ceremonies, same rights, same responsibilities. If a couple wants something different in their relationship, they should call it something different - whether the couple is gay or straight.

Give us the wisdom to teach our children to love,
to respect and be kind to one another,
so that we may grow with peace in mind.
