From a legal and political perspective, I’m with Hadley Arkes that this is an unmitigated disaster. But from the perspective of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I can agree with Dr. Russell Moore that there is always good news, even though, as he puts it, “Same-sex marriage is headed for your community.” Wise words for those of us who don’t plan to give in – ever – regardless of what the Court might say.

  1. The conservatives have themselves to think for the demise of DOMA and Prop 8, their lack of concern when they ignored the suffering of the AIDS epidemic and said it was god’s retribution on the sodomites, led to LGBT people to realize that they have to fight for their rights. Especially, when partners of AIDS victims were left out in the cold when the victims family came in and kicked the surviving partner out even though the victim and the victim’s partner were together for 20 years. Thanks 1980’s Conservatives!
