Because according to the definition, what they are practicing is homophobia. I do not feel calling it what it is obfuscates the issue.

the main issue here is coming up with a strategy to get homosexual marriage legalized.

It can't be done under the current tyranny of the religious right. There are no arguments that work with the cherry pickers. For example, Jesus said nothing about homosexuality, yet he spoke at length about divorce...Christians aren't rallying to get divorce made illegal are they? Why homosexuality? Fear of those that are "different", I say.
