I heard you the first time, and it is still a matter of opinion.

You still do not explain HOW the value is cheapened. You just keep repeating that it would. walk me through your marriage, specifically. How does the value drop after gay marriage is legalized?
Marriage will not be affected, so no, I still dont see the point.
All of your reasons (not yours personally but the ones you provided) simply seem to reflect homophobia, not much else. There is no rationale to it.

The rationale is simple. It's as if the standards were lowered for something after you have achieved a previous, higher standard. For example, if the requirements for getting an M.D. were suddenly made easier, some existing M.D.s may be opposed to that.
Marriage will not be affected? It is very much affected in the sense that the definition is changing.
