The Marriage Debate

Although I've been reading a few of the posts this week, I've neglected to mention that Maggie Gallagher has been guest-blogging at the Conspiracy on the issue of same-sex marriage. This is Maggie's final post on the issue -- a post that has thus far drawn nearly 400 comments, most of which are civil. I've been somewhat taken aback by the disdain some advocates of same-sex marriage display for people whose conception of marriage is informed by thousands of years of human experience. My sense is that, straws and camel's backs being what they are, they are playing with fire.
