From....my apartment, this is Sunday
Random Sunday, which tonight is on Blogzilla 1985 as opposed to our
normal audio version because of the holiday. I hope you had a fun and
safe Independence Day and I'm so thankful that you're back with us
again on the website that started it all.
I'll be going it alone for this
adventure into the things you should know, the things you might find
interesting, and the things you wish you could just forget.
You can't seem to turn on a television
or check your favorite news website these days without being
assaulted with stories about the definition of marriage and how the
Supreme Court ruling in favor of marriage equality is either
progressing our country out of the dark ages or creating a new world
of immorality. Gay rights activists call it a step forward in
humanity, while many from the right say it's the first step towards a
future where you'll one day be able to marry your neighbor's dog.
As ludicrous as that argument is, and
it is one of the dumber things that the conservative community has
ever spouted, there is a very real challenge to the new definition of
marriage that came into the light over the weekend.
