Hundreds of gay and lesbian couples across New York State to marry this weekend
I haven’t gotten around to posting anything about gay marriage becoming legal in New York State yet, and now’s a good time to do so. Here’s a recent article from the New York Times about the hundreds of couples who are planning on getting married this Sunday, the first day that gay marriage will be legal in the state. Niagara Falls is lighting up in rainbow colors tonight in celebration of the occasion, while some couples are being wed there at midnight. Anyone who’s non-religious should care about this, since it represents a step forward in the larger battle to move past the antiquated, progress-stifling moral values of Christianity and other religions.
