Cynics Need Not Apply

Ellen Goodman has a good column called "Same-Sex Couples Reinforce the Power of Marriage.". It's worth a read.

I've enjoyed seeing the photos and stories coming out of Massachusetts this week, and I'm amused to see some of the more rabid anti-gay nutjobs like Dobson and Sheldon have been having a hard time firing up the congregations for the anti-gay amendment. The U.S. is a pious nation -- sometimes insufferably so -- but most people have a very civic "live and let live" mindset with usually kicks in when the Jesus People get too far out of hand.
