Please provide evidence that "civil marriage is a civil right."
Loving v. Virginia. Google is your friend.

Thus, marriage, primarily, is for the future society - children.
This tired nonsense again? Sigh. I'm hope I live long enough to see it legal in all 50 states, it's not a matter of if, just when, and how. Could be next June if SCOTUS gives the proper ruling. Religious nutters heads are going to explode, I hope I get to see at least one actually happen.
The Supreme Court will hear arguments this week in two cases that have the potential to transform American society and the status of gays and lesbians in it.
In oral arguments on Tuesday morning the 9 justices will consider whether California’s voter approved ban on gay marriage, Proposition 8, unfairly discriminates against gay people. On Wednesday, they’ll consider whether the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act barring the U.S. government from recognizing same-sex marriages, even in states that allow them, constitutes federal overreach.
Both cases could change the everyday lives of gay people and transform the larger, decades old gay rights movement, which has pursued both a court-based and political strategy to gain more legal protections for gay people. But the California Prop 8 case in particular, called Perry v. Hollingsworth, is considered by both pro and anti-gay marriage camps to be the most important, and potentially sweeping, of the two.
Is this month all about gay pride or something? I apologize for my ignorance on the matter but I just want to know why sites such as CNN have so much gay articles up at the moment?

Anybody with any common sense sees through this obvious lack of logic.
Mmm - actually, it's the other way around. It's only when you can't build a logical argument that you have to resort to that lowest-common-denominator labeled "common sense".
"We gay people"???
Right there, I know you are deluding yourself.
Gay originally meant, "happy."
Now it is warped into homosexual fetishes, disguised as a single source of identity - what rubbish!
YOU ARE NOT "GAY."
Who you are is much more complex than the sexual fetishes you have.
Sexual fetishes is one tiny aspect of your perspective and approach to living, not your identity.
Again, you are mistaken.
"Fetish: any object or nongenital part of the body that causes a habitual erotic response or fixation."
A man's genitals do not fit with another man's genitals, & the same lack of fitting applies with 2 women.
Thus, they resort to substitutes, aka "nongenital parts" & thus homosexuality is a fetish.
I'm assuming you have zero higher education, based on your posts. Certainly not from an accredited school.... but I still have to ask: Since you're such an expert on human sexuality, from where did you get your degree in same? What courses did you take to speak so authoritatively on the subject in such a way that goes against 99% of the prevailing academia on the subject?
BTW: You DO realize that your own underlined and emphasized definition of the word "fetish" actually refutes what you claim is a fetish in your very next sentence?
Like I said.... lack of education and all that....
Marriage has no place with government deciding. If we used logic, government would view it all as domestic partnership. Marriage would be defined based on your religious affiliation. Go to a church get married, you are married. If you are gay or like your cousin or want multiple partners, then you can create your own organization to perform those ceremonies
