Advocates of same-sex marriage aren't lazy. They have taken and continue to take these steps in the forums of government, education, media, commerce, and religion:

  • Contact their legislators (frequently);
  • Donate to campaigns of legislators;
  • Work on curriculum in schools;
  • Conduct "educational" forums for the public;
  • Write letters to newspapers;
  • Join churches, critique church doctrine and scripture concerning homosexual activity, and, where possible, change church doctrine;
  • Join influential governmental, commercial, political, and charitable organizations and seek to change policy within those organizations;
  • Work for privileges and benefits within the workplace; and
  • Form alliances between individuals and organizations.
Sadly, some go further, intimidating the other side, by confronting and giving the name "bigot" to people who follow their religion, conscience, and reason in finding homosexual activity immoral and unhealthy.

Advocates of same-sex marriage are marked by their passion and persistence. With few exceptions, people whom they oppose - those who believe that marriage should remain the union of one man and one woman - are marked by their silence.
