You likely heard about the election results in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York. Here is a story from the New York Times about a ballot issue in Maine:
In a stinging setback for the national gay-rights movement, Maine voters narrowly decided to repeal the state’s new law allowing same-sex marriage. …
With the repeal of the same-sex marriage law, Maine became the 31st state to reject same-sex marriage at the ballot box. Five other states — Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, New Hampshire and Vermont — have legalized same-sex marriage, but only through court rulings and legislative action.
Read the rest here.
Me: I agree with Pastor Rick Warren that rampant divorce threatens the future of marriage more than the movement for so-called same-sex marriage. Be that as it may, it appears the general electorate in various times and places may still consider so-called same sex marriage a counterfeit version of marriage that could weaken the value of traditional marriage, also known as, well, marriage.
