I know you and Aquinasfan have some sort of need to find justification for the old rules, but I believe in a hundred years from now, people are going to read this on some archive, and wonder what the fuss was all about.

You sound like someone right out of the pages of Huxley's "Brave New World".

Societies change attitudes on things all the time. In my grandparents' day, it was almost unthinkable to marry outside of one's European ethnic group. In my parents' time, it was almost unthinkable to marry outside your religion (and I mean the exact sect). Forty years ago, it was illegal to marry outside your race in a handful of states.

I think it may well take less than forty years before attitudes change on gay marriage, as well. There are parts about the coming world that will annoy many people who are living today, but that's not going to stop them from happening.
