When you're ready

"Our marriages have never required the church's imprimatur.  The best use of our passion and conviction is to build relationships that are strong and honest and beautiful.  Along the way we can always hold wedding feasts that "the church" [or society] can come to when it stops pouting outside."

The brackets are mine of course.  I love this framing of the issue.  Gay marriage only gives you more access to community, connection and tradition, not less.
