Somebody, Anybody, Explain this?

Check out this Anti Gay Marriage PSA:

With quotes like:

"My freedom will be taken away"
and
"Those advocates want to change the way I live"

How can this sort of ad be anything more than fear inducing propaganda?

Sure, let's have a discussion about gay marriage - but is this really the way to do it?

    Wow, maybe we're not too far from this:

    I mean, it seems to me that the Taliban were just protecting their "way of life" and couldn't have anyone Jeopardizing their religious beliefs, even if the couples love and desires did not directly affect them (somehow Gay marrige will affect my relationships? someone please explain this to me, I've never understood it). An extreme example maybe, but when we allow fear to control our beliefs, we must constantly protect them and therefore do anything to keep them from being broken.
