Default After gay marriage, what will be the church's galvanizing issue?

We will have had the ERA and gay marriage as the two largest issues of the past 30 years.

What's next?

I can't think of anything.

I'm skeptical the church wants to wade into embryo research issues.

What's next . . . seriously? Isn't it obvious? Marriage rights for polygamists.

Would we all drown in the irony? I think so, no matter the position the Church takes: whether it be silence, opposition, or support. We're all going to drown in irony.

Women and the priesthood.

Maybe women already have it, it's just not formally acknowledged.

I can see the church pushing for one last-ditch effort to get a constitutional marriage amendment.

Very skeptical it would work.
