Society has a big stake in reproductively viable family formation. Just investigate the social (in)security Ponzi scheme demographics if you doubt this. There's every reason to reward future baby citizens and the adults that do the breeding. Gays are free riders and deserve nothing. These are simple princilpes that are historically obvious over all of civilization.
If you're interested in liberalized gay marriage laws and falling birth rates, investigate Holland over the past 25 years.

This suffers from the EXACT SAME failure of imagination and myopia as your "atheists are breeding themselves to extinction" argument. Its comical that they are both supported by the same mistaken premise, i.e. that there is only one way to get babies and only one way to make atheists.

Sounds like you just wanted to inject your view on atheism into another thread, imo.
Because, correct me if I'm wrong, but Man + Man != Baby... same applies for women, no?
The tax breaks for marriage were implemented to promote families and give breaks for those who are raising our next generation. Are you telling me that a gay couple is just as likely to conjure up a baby as a hetero couple is to have one naturally?
