There are about 70 challenges to anti-gay marriage laws making their way through the nation's courts right now, thanks to the gays wanting to wreck marriages in every state. However, this latest challenge, a lawsuit challenging North Carolina's Amendment One, a nice little piece of mob rule ballot initiative legislating that says that the state cannot legally recognize any marriage that is not between a man and a woman, is definitely a current favorite. Why? because it is totally a "give the religious zealots a taste of their own medicine" kinda thing.

<i>Vengeance is Mine, and retribution, In due time their foot will slip; For the day of their calamity is near, And the impending things are hastening upon them.</i>
it&#039;s weird how <i>vengeance</i> comes in many guises.
I heard this on the way to work (hah!) today and almost drove off the road laughing. What a brilliant argument, why haven&#039;t we thought of this before. If you can follow any crazy religion you want, and use to sanction your shit, why can&#039;t any other group of 1 or more people do the same. The circular arguments that will spring up from this case should be used as an alternative energy form, this is gonna be great! Unless..... Well, surely nobody has ever started a war because of different interpretations of a holy book, right?
Villains always appeal to majoritarian approval of their crimes, especially if they&#039;ve made up that approval out of smoke, mirrors, and wand-waving.

So, regarding the pic: rolling back down my worldline 40 years, I&#039;d hit that.

Fucking heathen!
So this will be like Calvinball, then?
Wait, the robes were too much? That&#039;s a new one for me. Were they condisered too flamboyant or something? Slippery slope to Papism?
I declare all mugs as holy chalices in the Church of The Wonkettariat - boom, problem solved!
O for a muse of fire that would ascend the highest courthouse steps...

The slaves couldn&#039;t own property including their pretend wives because also too they weren&#039;t allowed to be married either.
That&#039;s gonna put a big dent in the Saturday morning *Chick-A-Lick biscuit business and also too their church car washes in the parking lot.
*Attributed to my son; he couldn&#039;t say Chic-fil-A when he was a toddler.
Did Asheville become a cesspool of sin before or after James Franco received his MFA from Warren Wilson College? Asking for a friend.
Rule #2 will make the Perimeter of Wisdom a sin.
Also too Episcopalians.
