The divide will only grow deeper

The culture wars will only grow more divisive, and the divide will be gay marriage says Stanton Peele of Psychology Today. Gays will win, and maybe within 10 years. In the meantime the war will put Fundies against others and young against old. The biggest group to suffer in this battle will, of course, be the conservative Christian church. The Republican Party will be right behind -- all potential candidates for 2012 favor a federal amendment and if the Supremes ruled today they would support a ban. The battle may even doom the GOP. But Democrats may also suffer -- they haven't exactly embraced gay marriage yet, even if Democratic voters have. Thankfully, America will soon no longer see gay marriage as strange, wrong, or any of their business.
