South Africa Moves Ahead
It seems that South Africa is joining the group of countries that roundly trounce the United States as far as Gay rights are concerned.
When are we going to be embarrassed that these other countries have more rights than we (the "free and the brave") have?

About the time we become embaressed and realize that taking other peoples' money for "the common good" is just about as stupid as regulating their sex lives "for the common good."
Wait for it. It'll happen, some day.

Re: South Africa Moves Ahead
I think you and I are both idealists. There is one key element though that separates countries that have engendered gay rights, versus countries such as the US and Australia – the rise of the Christian movement (I refuse to call them “Right”). There is no longer separation from Church and state as increasingly, our politics, and hence our lives are governed by religious dogma.Originally Posted by Donkey_Left
