Yes this thread is not going too well. The narrow point is that just because folks are flat ass wrong on an issue, and they are if they oppose SSM in my opinion, does not mean they are bad people, to be loathed and disdained, in the way probably bigots and racists in general should be. And some adhere to the point of view of the religious hierarchy of their Church on this matter, e.g., some Catholics. That is where they place their trust. I find that mitigatory. Obviously, others do not.
Sometimes it's hard to figure out who are the misguided and who are the bigots/racists. They sound a lot alike quite often.
