The war over gay marriage is largely over.

The war over sodomy is largely over... The war over infanticide is largely over... The war over euthanasia is largely over... The war over polygamy is largely over... The war over pedophilia is largely over... The war over bestiality is largely over... The war over cannibalism is largely over...

Lou Budvis, meet Slippery Slope.

Yeah, that's nice to say, Ponygirl, but how would you suggest we turn things around?

We've lost the country as a whole. Even among Republicans, there is a disturbing percentage who favor allowing gay marriage. Which of the states now allowing it will reverse course? Which court case, if it goes to SCOTUS, will result in our favor?

All of that means that yes, we have largely lost the war over gay marriage. To admit it is not a "slippery slope", it's reality. And unless we want to start losing any of the other battles you mention, we will need to start acknowledging reality.

I find it curious that people who want a limited gov’t think there ought to be laws regulating sexual acts between consenting adults.
