One man with courage is a majority

The title is a quote from Thomas Jefferson. We’ve been watching the HBO special John Adams, and I was looking for a title for this posting, so I started reading some quotes from Thomas Jefferson over at BrainyQuote.com.

The future holds that Gay Marriage / Same-Sex Marriage will be a certainty in the United States one day. The only thing left to be decided is the time frame upon which the discrimination will in the laws will be overturned, and constitutional equality restored. To the casual observer, time has practically stood still when it comes to the advancement of equal marriage, however nothing could be further from the truth.

Advancements in several states have been achieved, while still more are forthcoming.
From the court decisions in the State of New York recognizing marriages performed elsewhere including our Canadian Marriage, to the situation in Iowa with it’s solitary married couple (Sean & Tim), the defeat of the Arizona anti-gay marriage amendment, to the California Supreme Court case that could invalidate the discimination in the laws in the largest state in the United States.

Indeed, although it’s not making the nightly news every night, the momentum is increasing. Where will the next gain be made?
