California's Proposition 8 has been ruled unconstitutional!!
The religious right and fundamentalist wackos need to just give it a rest and realize that same-sex marriage is going to be the law of the land. It is simply inevitable as society continues moving towards a more-tolerant attitude.
U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker issued a 136-page ruling (read it by clicking here) that lays everything out pretty well. His decision will probably be appealed to the Supreme Court, and although that court is packed with conservative activist judges, even if the Supreme Court overturns Walker's decision, it is still only a matter of time until they are removed and replaced by more-tolerant judges.
Naturally, most of the opposition to same-sex marriage comes from a religious perspective, as if the "Bible" can be trusted as an authority on anything. Geez, people, it was "written" by who knows who thousands of years ago, has been transcribed, re-translated and transliterated countless times since.
Come to think of it, a theological degree is the only "educated" degree where you are not supposed to "think." Lovely.
If the above link to the Judge's ruling doesn't work too well, there is a .pdf of the decision here.
Never pass up a chance to sit down or relieve yourself.
