Now the Religious Right has decided that two adults who love each other can only get married if one of them has a penis and the other has a vagina. They apparently have to pass the body parts test, or the Religious Right won't approve.
I find it astonishing that one group of people would actually protest the marriage wishes of another group of people. Why on earth does the Religious Right think they have the authority to dictate who other people can love and marry? Who is harmed if gays get married, anyway? How does this hurt anybody? It doesn't, of course. All it does is freak out the Religious Right. They get scared. So in order to avoid getting scared, they'd rather pass national laws that prevent gays from getting married.
For this, the Religious Right will burn in Hell, of course. And George Bush will be right there with them, probably in charge.
BOSTON (AP) --- Boisterous opponents of same-sex marriage sang,
cheered and chanted Sunday at a rally to build support for a state
constitutional amendment defining marriage as between one man and one
woman.
The court gave the Legislature a mid-May deadline to comply with its
ruling.
Legislators, meanwhile, are meeting Wednesday for a constitutional
convention to consider an amendment banning gay marriage, but 2006 is
the soonest voters could approve such an amendment.
Demonstrator Ed Zicko, 69, acknowledged that gay marriage could become
the law before residents in the state have a chance to vote on it.
A poll released Sunday by Merrimack College's Center for Public
Opinion Research suggested that support for gay marriage may be
slipping, and support for legalizing civil unions growing.
