Default Deseret News editor weighs in on gay marriage and SCOTUS

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/8...viewpoint.html

He appears to have not looked at any recent polling, nor looked at how the polling breaks down by age group. And how the polling has changed over time.

He envisions epic political battles in the future.

Umm, sir, one can disagree on the merits of gay marriage, but you sir are delusional about what the future holds.

And it seems his entire argument is help on on the idea of gays being worse parents. Even if gays are horrible parents, there just aren't that many of them that have kids.

No wonder he and his buddies can't win any legal arguments. Either not very bright, or not very honest.

Dam right. I wish more Mormons would understand that SSM opponents are part of a shrinking minority, and calibrate the things they say accordingly. "Homosexuality is an abomination" and like remarks are not helpful.

Wow. Utah is more insular than I thought.

I feel like Glenn Beck would be embarrassed to have written that editorial.
