I am happy to see that the District of Columbia is joining other progressive and fair minded States and is finally going to allow Same Sex Marriage. This move is long overdue. I have listened to and attempted to understand the argument against Same Sex Marriage but cannot comprehend it. To my mind it is nothing but closed minded bigotry that is giving “religion” a bad name.

Marriage is both a civil association of people and a religious one. I have no problem if, say Catholics in the person of the Pope, refuse to acknowledge same sex marriage. My problem comes when the state chooses to side with them. To my mind it is a simple question of the separation of church and state and in the U.S. at any rate that is supposed to be unquestioned.
