Hypocrisy
If we're going to stop homosexuals from marrying because it will destroy the traditional definition of marriage, we should adhere to that definition and encourage polygamy. The Bible clearly states that marriage is between one man and several women. This is agreed upon by Christians, Jews, and Muslims. Only those who would defy God's command and try to change the Bible would disagree. They'll get theirs in the end, though:
Seriously, everybody knows that polygamy was completely OK in Biblical times. Solomon, in his God-given wisdom, had 700 wives and 300 concubines.

Bring back marriage the way God intended: between a man and his women!
Indeed, studies have found polygamy present in 78% of the world's cultures, including some Native American tribes. (While most are polygynists — with one man and multiple women — there are polyandrists in Nepal and Tibet in which one woman has multiple male spouses.) As many as 50,000 polygamists live in the United States.

18I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. 19And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
