I would be forced to bow to prayers that make me uncomfortable, to salute commandments I consider wretchedly antiquated ("Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house; thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's"), and to condemn good friends. (My neighbors, it happens, are a servantless gay couple.)..."Posted by fightingdem at November 25, 2003 9:29 AM
