There are many ways to look at this question depending mostly on wether or not you agree or believe in gay rights.

They also argue that they are treated unfairly. Those who oppose gay marriage for the most part believe that this is a moral problem and what correct morality reality is at times is connected to religion. This is more of a personal view rather than an actual problem.
