If an employer doesn't want to hire homosexuals, they shouldn't be forced to.
If an employer doesn't want to hire anti-gay right activists, they shouldn't be forced to.
The government, on the other hand, shouldn't be allowed to discriminate. They have to abide by the U.S. Constitution (since the Constitution was written to limit government power).
It's literally as simple as that. Instead of being against the gay rights movement, I'm against the anti-free market movement.

I was almost not hired by my last employer because I would not work on the Sabbath (Saturday). I did offer to work however long they wanted me to any other day, but Saturdays were a requirement. But the department head came in and heard the interviewer telling me that and was like, "Are you kidding! No, that's not a problem!" So I was hired. lol And when I quit they wanted me to come back and work for them again, but I couldn't since I was pursuing my degree at that time. So I can understand both sides of the argument. I tend to like a nice medium. The hallmark of liberty is abuse, so out of necessity there needs to be some regulation. Such as minimum wage, child labor laws, etc.
But saying that a Christian church should be forced to hire a Satan worshipper so as not to religiously discriminate is kind of absurd.

I don't agree with everything Libertarians have to say, but I would vote Libertarian because I believe Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same coin. Libertarians have enough of an edge to turn this nation around and get people thinking outside of their box and giving them real choices. Limiting federal government should be a big goal of the American people as well.
Anyway, to keep this on topic, I don't think that marriage should be a government affair. Common law marriages are more relevant to my beliefs. I believe two people can be married to each other without the approval of the United States government. It's been done for thousands of years. As a Christian it's important still that God recognizes the marriage, and for the state government to formally recognize gay unions as marriage forces a perception of marriage on society that I do not approve of. So the best bet may be to take the government's hand out of marriage altogether.
