Speaking of evolution (which I will be, as you scroll down), Dale Carpenter at Volokh Conspiracy has noticed something. Speaking of Massachusetts:
Almost three years into the recognition of gay marriage, with no evidence of ill effects, polls in the state show majorities now supporting gay marriage.
What he doesn't mention is that the rallying cry of the anti-gay Christianists has shifted, in the case of Massachusetts and California, from "tyranny of unelected judges" to "tyranny of a few people in power in the legislature." In other words, "Unless I get my way, it's tyranny."
Of course they're in a panic. Same-sex marriage and near-marriage are becoming reality in more and more places in this country, and most people don't give a shit. Poor downtrodden power-hungry bigots. Cue violin.
