Vice President Joe Biden says the country is evolving on the issue of gay marriage and he thinks it's inevitable there will be national consensus.
He said on ABC's "Good Morning America" Friday the same thing is happening with the issue of marriage that happened with gays' service in the military.
People will probably never put it on the same level as normal marriage, but it will happen.
The same was said about interracial marriage, and even about interfaith marriage. If a Catholic marries a Jew, is their marriage less valuable to society than when a Catholic marries another Catholic? How about when a white person marries a black person?
The idea of same-sex marriage may seem strange now, but give it a decade or two, and it'll be just as legitimate to society as opposite-sex marriages.
I agree with biden, and 2020 sounds about right. DADT was a big step in the right direction, but I don't think american is "ready" right now for gay marriage, but it will be.
I think before 2015. I wonder when the government will stop sticking there nose into marriage. The government has no place saying who marries who. Marriage is a spiritual and emotional issue. The government has no right sticking their nose into it.
Hopefully, never. But even if it does happen, I would never look at it as the same concept of a REAL marriage.
