On a proposed “Federal Marriage Amendment”

We are brewing for another constitutional debate - coming to a head after decades of discussion - the likes of which we haven't seen since prohibition. Conservative lawmakers and lobbyists are now pushing for a constitutional amendment that defines “marriage” as a union between a man and a woman. And frankly, I am surprised. Most of the opposition is coming from Christian organiztions who should by now be used to having to recant.

I'm not going to go on for long here, but the simple fact here is that the Christian church is once again going to have to rethink their faith. The acceptance of homosexuality in an enlightened and informed society is inevitable. Even if a “Federal Marriage Amendment” makes it all the way to the Constitution, it will only be a matter of time before there is another amendment nullifying it - just like in Prohibition days.

So I'm not worried.
