      In the wake on TN state ct SSM decision, let's do a rhetoric check on "bigotry" as the root of all opposition. http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2014/08/is-tennessees-ruling-against-gay-marriage-a-setback-for-the-movement/376013/ …

      The Judge's opinion on the rational basis test was one long quote from state's brief that marriage is for procreation. Really? RT@Profepps

      @espinsegall a bad opinion is not the same thing as a hateful one.

      The idea that "biology" justifies bans on SSM b/c same sex couples "can't" procreate is pretty bad don't you think. No thought. RT@Profepps

      @espinsegall @Profepps By the same logic, if you are found to be barren or sterile, should you not be allowed to marry?

      Issue isn't whether judge was right but whether he was bigoted. Tough ? but at some point ignorant denial of right may be bigoted.@Profepps

      .@espinsegall we are playing with words. Everyone knows the difference between ignorance and hatred. Neither is good. Not the sane thing.

          @Profepps @espinsegall basing it on religion is also not good for law, but I wouldn't consider it malice. Although some might have malice.

          @kkaplan @espinsegall religious grounds aren't ok. Establishment. Simmons J doesn't use them.

          @Profepps @espinsegall sure, I'm just saying it's an example of grounds that aren't founded, but not malice.
