One step forward and two back
I believe one day same sex marriage will fall under the same cloud as civil rights. Just as it is unfathomable to believe a black man would not be entitled to the same rights as a white man so one day will it be unfathomable that a gay couple cannot enjoy the same rights as a straight couple to marry and raise a family. These laws one day will be looked back on as perverse and unenlightened. You read it here – maybe not first – but it will happen. [Note that the major opponents to same sex marriages are besides the religious right, blacks, sort of similar to victim becomes oppressor – look at Israel and Palestine for further examples of this reversal.]
Meanwhile, DC passed a law allowing same sex marriage – simultaneously the Catholic church has withdrawn all major support for the poor until the law is rescinded. Lovely move and how charitable of them – using the church’s purse strings to deny poor people to help keep gays at bay. Very sad Catholic Church – almost ranks up there with the rampant pedophilia that was routinely ignored by the church at large.
