I'm not posting this because the author agrees with my own views on the topic, but because of his rational analytical approach to how he reached (and changed and evolved!) his views on same-sex marriage:

I really wish that our politics didn't have to be this "all-or-nothing", "black-or-white" thing - when you actually ask people more in-depth what their opinions are on this or many other topics, the answers are a lot more complex and across-the-board. But those kinds of things don't fit into 30-second sound bytes, political speeches, news headlines, or 2-minute news segments. And they don't force people to polarize, which seems to be the objective of most politicians (on both sides of the aisle!)
