It's offensive that the only opinion allowed on this list serve is the gay opinion.

What I find offensive is someone telling me what I can discuss, and what I
can't.
Since you take offense, or feel threatened by, so many of the comments
here, perhaps this isn't the best listserv for you, Christine.

If this list-serve wants to go back on topic, I suggest you halt all discussion on the gay marriage amendment, whether it be in support of banning gay marriage or against it.

debating the topic, but I just wanted to update everyone on where the
amendment stands. It passed both houses of state congress with the
3/5th's majority it needed. So the amendment will be on the ballot -- in
the Republican primary -- in May! So this amendment is clearly going to
pass.

The Republicans are so uncertain that the amendment will get a majority vote that they scheduled it for the May Republican Primary, when few Democrats will go the polls, all but ensuring passage of the amendment, which needs a simple majority to pass. This shows that they are scared because attitudes are changing to support marriage equality. Finally, the last silver lining is that court cases from other states are on their way to the US Supreme Court which may nullify this amendment if it passes.
