  1. That CA bill is lame and unnecessary, but if it helps to reverse the ban on gay weddings, that would be good. However, churches have always had the "right not to marry" people in the church. -- Catholics and Mormons have been doing that for years, as have other.

    1. Donna -- Yeah, the alleged threat to religious freedom that anti-LGBT activists are always complaining about is largely a red herring.

  2. OK, I'm aloud to go racist because I'm Latina myself. I think that California -- a blue state for goodness sake -- is against gay marriage because of the high percentage of Latinos. In our culture the LGBT lifestyle is unpardonable.
