While what you say works at the interpersonal level, I think that we and especially young people live in a media world and unfortunately are beyond being reached anywhere else.

If we let a young media personality (like the talking head above) simply say that these issues are a matter of ‘getting it’ or the latest fashio to millions of people without some rebuttal then they will be deaf to quiet voices in our counter culture.

I agreed, it is somewhat limited to and at the interpersonal level, but, these days that appears to be the only place I have some control over my influence. Also, I’m still numb from the election results. The fighter in me should return soon. That, or I’m moving to Alaska!

I understand what you are saying, and, the “noise” and efforts of the YES California Prop 8 campaign did inform people of the sanctity of marriage, but I don’t know how you can silence the talking heads or MSM. We’ve already received a huge lesson on how we can’t silence them or get rebuttals in. We have been neutered in the public square. Frightening.
