Your assuming religion is rational.
I think Atticus's explanation is probably the closest to what's going on. Civil marriage will always be thought of as quasi-religious, so anyone who seriously believes in the religious aspects of marriage will be concerned that by permitting civil marriages between gays/lesbians, religious marriage will be tarnished.
