Couldn’t resist a timely headline joke here — a Shakespearean nod to all the panicked Americans convinced that legalizing same-sex marriage represents DOOM, as March 15 traditionally does.
Some relevant recent headlines:
- Maryland gay marriage bill dies with no final vote (Washington Post)
- Progress in WPost gay-marriage package (GetReligion)
- My gay son: The face of the church’s lack of respect (San Francisco Chronicle)
And, to counter that atrocious Catholic News Agency article on Mexico’s first gay divorce last month, here’s a reminder that our husband-wife teams, even religious ones, aren’t quite keeping marriage sacred, either: Christians question divorce rates of faithful (USA Today)
(Or, you could just read about “The Bachelor” finale: Brad Womack proposed to Emily Maynard. I don’t watch this show, but/because I know this much: after 14 seasons, not one of the engaged couples has actually gotten married!)
