GtS:

I don't think I've heard such a moderate position from you before on this issue.

The fact of gays marrying or not marrying is, indeed, as tempest in a teapot. The fact of them being denied the RIGHT to do so is a serious matter and it would be so whether the basis of the bias was freckles, or elongated earlobes, or skin color, or any other non-germane excuse to exercise bias.

This really has nothing to do with homosexuality as such. It has to do with knowingly excluding a set of humans from a legal right on spurious grounds.

Why make them sit in the back of the bus?
