And yes, it makes absolutely perfect sense, doesn't it? Yet I've had so many run ins with ultra-religious types where they don't seem to get this simple concept. They display the kind of thinking I'd expect from a child...yet even a child will accept reason. Heck, most children reason better than a lot of adults do, the little free thinkers. 
In my experience, the sort of person who'd argue that marriage - or by extension, sex - is about procreation, is pretty much immune to the discomforts of logic. They put their bible before the Constitution, and that's the problem: they don't understand that freedom of religion doesn't trump freedom, full stop. And that's where they get themselves tied up in knots, not that they realize it themselves until it comes home to roost.
I don't know what the answer is. But I wish this country would stop legislating from the church pulpit.
