serious question

I feel very frustrated because I have always been for social justice. but now with the whole gay marriage and religious freedom issues it is getting more complicated. besides, society follows trends and as one person, if you are not on that trend, you just feel tired of explaining to people and they don't understand. sometimes i think it would be easier to turn a blind eye and i think I might be personally happier. so is ignorance bliss in this case? should I just say "oh well"?
