I point to my post here which reflects this call: http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/showpo...&postcount=130


The arguments I see on here in favor of gay marriage come from a Puritanical p.o.v. Instead, I ask for the arguments in our political discourse to reflect the values of "hope, faith in the future, Love." I have attempted to reconcile those values with gay desire. I even wrote a book about this! And it's pretty much the gayest-with-abandon book ever written. The majority of the articles were written for a gay porn website (badpuppy!), fercryingoutloud. http://communityofdesire.wordpress.com/ (incidentally I don't make even 1 penny of profit off the sales of my book--all profit goes directly to the printer and distributer lulu).

wewpz, missed that. however--i don't think using religious sources makes for a "better" argument. religion has no place in policy.

but hey, as long as you support-gay marriage, whatever stance works for you also works for me.
