Being equally bigoted towards bigots without even attempting to understand their viewpoints is a bit odd don't you think?

Nobody is trying to make it illegal for him to get married. Who is being bigoted towards him in any way?
Eich shouldn't be able to enter a room without being berated, until he concedes and gives up his bigotry.

Seems somewhat intolerant of different opinions to me

I am absolutely 100% intolerant of anyone opposed to gay marriage (or civil unions for straight couples/gay couples, same end result).
Congratulations? I'm not exactly sure if that's something you're proud of, but good luck with it I suppose.
I guess you support people who spend their money oppressing others? I'm against it. It's nothing I'm particularly proud about. It's just common human decency.

Is what I responded to. If you choose to argue against a strawman, that's your business but I won't have anything to do with the perversion of others' arguments for the sake of making a point.

I fervently wish that arguments that rely wholly on self-reference were illegal. For the love of Gödel.
