Away for the day…
I’ll be away from my computer for most of today, so I thought I’d use this opportunity to post a clear and concise video I found explaining why opposition to gay marriage limits the rights of religious minorities who want to perform gay marriages (a point I’ve talked about before on this blog). It also debunks several conservative Christian talking points concerning the “dangers” to religious freedom inherent in granting gay couples full marriage rights.
The video originated at the Waking Up blog, where you can find other videos as well.
Since it’s Sunday, be sure to check out my weekly music podcast as well.
Behave yourselves in the comments while I’m gone! I’ll most likely be checking in later this evening.
