Again, the votes in 11 states on gay marriage amendments proves this view is NOT just held by "right wing religious extremists", but is actually held by a significant majority of the general population as well.
Still, the Gay Rights activists and many of their supporters simply refuse to believe this is really the case, so they "demonize" any who oppose gay marriage as religious fanatics and convince themselves that most "normal people" really do support Gay Rights and Gay Marriage.

It's true, and unfortunate, that that labeling happens. Some of the Democrats biggest supporters, a large portion of the black community and the blue collar Union dudes, have the same stance as the religious fanatics on the issue.. the source of their stance might be different but it seems to be the same stand.
