The more passionately religious you are, the more hateful and small minded you become

No bigotry here, no siree!

So this must be true of Jesus and the apostles and everyone else in the bible who was "religious".

The one argument I haven't heard in support of the traditional definition of marriage is the one I think is actually the strongest: if gay marriage is legalized, heterosexual men will be less inclined to get married. Marriage will be seen as something that "gay" people do, not straight guys. Making it harder for women to keep and attract mates with which to raise children is not a good policy decision. That job is hard enough as it is.

In ohter words, once the value of marriage is diminished in that way, who will be most hurt? Children of course.

And ask yourself this: would a similarly hateful statement made against homosexuals have been published in the Chronicle?

Absolute double standard, ain't it?
