Well for hundreds of years western culture was largely Christian. Practicing a homosexual relationship is a sin according to the Bible and many people still believe in the Bible despite the decline of religion in the last 100 years. Since religion plays a central role in many people's lives still however, it is easy to see why they feel so strongly about this issue. If you believed strongly that marriage was an institute for a man and a woman then you would be against gay marriage too.

About the dude sending out flyers - I doubt he was doing it out of religious reasons though! He's probably just a homophobe.
