Equality in DC!

Mayor Adrian Fenty has signed the DC marriage equality bill into law. He did it in a church! The ceremony took place at All Souls Unitarian Church, one of many in the District that support gay equality. There is a manditory 30-day Congressional period, but the legislation is expected to stand. After that, Washingtonions can marry the men and women they love.

I love the symbolism of a church. The radical right haters have co-opted Christianity for themselves and given it a bad name. In reality many Christians fully support gay equality and there is a great deal of theology to support it.
