> So today one of those protestors told me “Next thing you know, they’ll be having sex in the streets.” I asked him to show me where in the Supreme Court decision that was allowed, because I missed it. He said “Well, it’s going to happen. Wait and see.” I told him if he could predict the future that well, he should be playing the lottery.

Heh, didn’t they read the dissent? Marriage leads to _less_ sex, not more. 😃

I’d just remind everyone that it was a bunch of straight guys who talked about d-doing it in the road long before this all came up…

You do realize that’s exactly what they fear will happen in our streets if we keep on with the whole gender inclusion thing.

OTOH if it means we’ll have BJ Bars downtown…

No money was involved in that. Plus I was taught this was because they didn’t have the Holy Spirit to guide them yet.
