So Far, We Seem To Be Surviving Gay Marriage

A federal judge today invalidated a California voter-approved prohibition of gay marriage. As of roughly 11 p.m., with skies over Pittsburgh dark for several hours, no blazing bolts of damnation from the sky have been observed or reported.

UPDATE: An entire day has passed since the court issued its order, yet no apocalyptic signal has been reported.

UPPERDATE: Another important development is an unconfirmed but welcome rumor that, even under the new gay marriage rules, same-sex marriage will be optional (rather than mandatory).
