Seriously though, to get religious for a second, remember all the stories in the Bible where Jesus goes against the "Word of God"? He works on the Sabbath, he dines with "sinners", he replaces "eye for an eye" with "love as I have loved"...on and on.
The current religious establishment bases their anti-gay stance on the "word of God" that the purpose of marriage is to bear children, that man and women were created specifically for that purpose. You get the feeling that if JC were walking around today.....he'd turn this "law" on its head as well.
"Love as I have loved"....everything else is secondary. Hard to beat that sentiment imo.

It's a great litmus test! If you find that comment "a dirty trick",
then you're probably offended by homosexuality. Personally I could
care less. I have a relative who's a lesbian and she's a VP at a
Fortune 500 company, her partner of 20+ years is a school teacher.
They pay taxes, keep a nice house, and are really fun to talk with -
the shameful horror.
