God created morons, too, apparently

The thugs with badges always seem to be on the wrong side of history. With this gay rights thing, nothing changes about that.

This is my favorite part of the deep, deep rhetoric of the "we don't hate gays so much as dislike them in a very hateful way" crowd:
"God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve," the Rev. Wendell Runion told the crowd.

I wonder where the fuck these religious types think gays came from, if God didn't create them? He created everything under the sun, no? Or did another, wicked god create homosexuality? If that's so, then how is it that God is the only god and all-powerful that he can't stop the other God from making Adam and Steve?

"I have news for those who want to marry who are man and man or woman and woman: The Bible says that cannot happen."

All of this rhetoric is really dampening my enthusiasm for ever getting married, as a straight woman. Now that marriage isn't about love and commitment but about proving that you're superior because you're in the straight and godly club, I don't want to be in it. I don't think I'm better than gay people. I don't want to be in a club that won't admit gays or blacks or whatever. I don't believe in God or the Bible and I don't want to walk around with a wedding band implying that married=Christian. I don't know if the Bible-thumpers know it, and if they do, I'm sure they don't like it, but the state actually recognizes as valid marriages between atheists.
If our country really must define marriage by Biblical standards, then inter-racial marriage would be banned, as would inter-faith marriages. But, weirdly, polygamy would actually be legalized again, and women would be legally required to tolerate slave-concubines for their husbands.
