I'd have to disagree with it being a "gross misintepretation" of the Bible. I 
think the Bible simply isn't clear on this topic and people can choose to 
interpret one way or the other, as meets their own agenda. But as for which is 
the "truth", that is not clear enough to say with any real surety.

You can say that, and the gay community can say that, but clearly from the ways 
the votes have done in these states, there's still a lot of paranoia, and the 
gay community has not addressed it sufficiently enough to make people 
comfortable with the idea. The various disruptions in recent years of church 
services by gay protest groups is certainly not going to help any.

I agree as well, but it's that last part of your sentence that many people do 
*not* agree with. Unless the gay community can truly make people feel that it 
*won't* effect them, I doubt there's much chance of gay marriage becoming 
universally accepted in the US.
