It is clear that the only way forward is by educating, educating, and educating.

I'm for civil union and holy marriage, neither institutions (state and church) dpending on the other for definition. I do think, however, that if the state is going to legally recognize one religious group's rites, they ought to recognize the other, otherwise, they should recognize none. I like what the Diocese of California is preferring for both hetero and lgbt couples: go get legal, then come and we will bless that.
I just started a new blog on the gay revolution. My partner and I are sick and tired of being treated as second class citizens and it is disturbing that African-Americans and Latinos came out against us in the end, when our community stands for them and their equal treatment.
