Those are among the very questions that the judge has previously said he wants discussed in the upcoming trial, and I will be happy to see the pro-Prop 8 folks' twisted, groundless logic exposed in court. @Daniel: Exactly.

Why is it the business or interest of the government to direct anyone's sexual activity in any direction? I thought conservatives were all about "personal responsibility." This is one area where I agree with them: a person's sexuality should be his or her own responsibility and no one else's, least of all the government's. 2.) How does allowing gay and lesbian people to channel their sexual activity into stable unions in any way detract from the ability of straight people to channel their own sexual activity into such unions?
