How does being oppose to same-sex marriage make you a bigot? Marriage is a religious rite. It should have nothing to do with government. I oppose same-sex marriage because the bible teaches against such acts. I don't look down on homosexuals at all. Just like I don't look down on a drunk or drug addict. Because I too once was living in sin, until I got saved by the grace of God. And through God's help turned my life around. Being a bigot is hating another person because of race, gender, creed ect.. And simply being oppose to same-sex marriage doesn't mean you hate them.
Even if government should have nothing to do with marriage it still
does. Thus if you oppose gay marriage for religious reasons you are simply imposing your religious views on others. Remember that government recognition of a marriage brings along with it some very important benefits.
Although your comparison of the GLBT community to drunks and drug addicts is pretty offensive.
