Is Sodomite "Marriage" a Fait Accompli?

Unwelcome news from my home state — NY Gov. introduces same-sex ‘marriage’ bill day after archbishop's installation. "The governor, who said he was baptized a Catholic, said the proposal was the 'right way' from a spiritual standpoint," we are told.

We also learn that "one Democratic Senator, Sen. Ruben Diaz, has said he opposes Gov. Paterson’s measure." Says Sen. Diaz:

I think it's a laugh in the face of the new archbishop. The Jews just finished their holy week. The Catholics just received the new archbishop. The evangelical Christians just celebrated Good Friday and resurrection. He comes out to do this at this time? It's a challenge the governor is sending to every religious person in New York and the time for us has come for us to accept the challenge.

Even if "the time for us has come for us to accept the challenge," we may well be doomed to fail and it is all our own fault. Restrained Radical, that "Korean-American compassionate-conservative neoclassical-liberal libertarian-paternalist violent-papist," yesterday posted "[a] prediction on when public opinion would turn in favor of SSM" — On Same-Sex Marriage.

He found "a regression model that looked at a series of political and demographic variables" and concludes, "By 2016, only a handful of states in the Deep South would vote to ban gay marriage, with Mississippi being the last one to come around in 2024." He mentions correctly that "Christians in general have been much more outspoken about SSM than about non-SSM threats to the sanctity of marriage."

He concludes, "I've always advocated getting the government out of marriage altogether but if the government is going to actively promote marriage, IMO, the next best alternative, though still probably infeasible, would be to promote marriage as an institution designed to provide for the best interests of children, rather than merely a contractual relationship between adults."
