What's the big deal about it? Why does the state have to be involved in it anyway? Why don't people just live together, and if they want to create such a union, they don't need the state for that, they should just do it. I see the reasons why the state likes marriage, but I really don't see why it should get involved.

Duh this is a Christian nation and we can't let gay's marry because Jesus says so.

Legal rights and tax benefits.
Legal rights include things like visitation rights in medical emergencies, so yeah it matters quite a bit.

Marriage should be only between the opposite sex and anything beyond that should not be cosidered "marriage" period.
