Whereas conservatives constantly want to define for other people what the rules are.

Weak.

Both parties do this. Gay marriage. Both sides are pushing for their viewpoint and want to define for other people what the rules are. Same for abortion, gun control, death penalty... you name it. Passing *any* law by its very nature defines what the rules are for everyone. How was Roe versus Wade any less a measure to legislate private morality? Eleven states (at last count) have approved gay marriage. How is that any less a measure to legislate private morality? You cannot attack the ones you disapprove of and herald the ones you agree with. Well, you can. Most people do. That's why we're in the mess we're in.

Since when is allowing gay marriage forcing people to have a gay marriage? Assuming you are heterosexual, do any of the laws that support gay marriage and gay rights force you to be gay, or to have a gay marriage?

But a law prohibiting gay marriage means that a gay couple CANNOT get married.

Do you not see a huge distinction between these two situations? Who is asking you to be gay? When you say the rules are for EVERYONE, does this mean you think the laws in support of gay marriage mean heterosexuals must also have a gay marriage and are no longer allowed to have a heterosexual marriage?? I mean seriously....
