[DEBATE] What are your thoughts on same sex marriages?

We haven't had a debate on talkfreelance for quite a while now so I figured it was about time!

The debate at question is, What are your thoughts on same sex marriages? Personally, I'm not agaisnt it at all, if two people love each other then surely they should be allowed to show it through the sacrement of marriage.

I don't agree with same sex families though, e.g A gay couple adopting or test tube babies etc. I believe a child should have a father and a mother and be brought up the way they were meant to be.
