Sure, marriage is a religious institution untouched by civilized, secular society, which is why we still have forcibly arranged, polygamous and/or incestuous marriages that cannot be divorced, rape is punished by forcing the victim to marry the rapist, and adultery is punished by stoning. The courts and the government have no power to redefine or recognize marriage, which is why the non-existing divorce cases are never decided by secular courts, courts never handle custody battles, and there is no such thing as a joint tax statement.

not opposed to gay people. He just wants them to prevent them from ruining the (religious) institution of marriage

This is literally the same argument racists used a few decades ago to argue against letting black and white people marry.

That's exactly what I'm saying. This is shit that people should not be able to support and expect to remain respected members of society. Their position is objectively evil. "Allowing all opinions to be heard" should not be mistaken for "pretending all opinions are equally valuable". Homophobes should be able to express their opinion in whatever way they want, and society should make every effort to oust them out of all positions of relevance or authority.

There is no evidence that Adolf Hitler ever had a relationship with a woman.

Except for, you know, his wife. What there is evidence for is that thousands of people were deported and killed by the Nazis for being gay. Since you're bringing up pots and kettles.
