The time is never right for change. It took a civil war and the civil rights movement, with hoses, dogs, national guards, mass arrests, civil disobedience and all the rest. It was not as if the people were ready for it. In any case this is not rocket science. The constitution is a document based on the values of freedom and equality. Unless you are trying to tell me that these have gone out of style they apply to gays the same as anyone else. So if people do not like it, so what? It is not as if they ever liked it when a status quo was lifted that gave a group their rights that were previously oppressed.

I come back to what I have said before. Christian traditions have made people ignoramuses when it comes to American traditions. All patriots will know tyranny when they see it and will not stand for it. "Give me liberty or give me death!" Tyranny of the Christian traditionalist is still tyranny.
