More Poll Dancing

The Los Angeles Times has an article by Cathleen Decker on their poll that found support for neutering marriage "varies widely among racial and ethnic groups" in Los Angeles. Since marriage licensing is a statewide issue and not restricted to Los Angeles, this is probably just a way for the advocates to see how and where to direct their pleas to go along with marriage neutering.

The article invokes the "inevitability card", relying on those who do not think enough of the younger generations will get more conservative in marriage and family issues as they age to sustain a defense of marriage. We, as marriage defenders, should not rely on the tendency towards conservativism with age and parenthood, however. We should be reaching out to those in our sphere of influence to encourage the defense of marriage.

You can find the paper's corresponding blog entry and comments here.

By the way, I have a new installment on my namesake blog, analyzing the paper's editorial discussing a California school district's sexualizing of grade school children to advance the promotion of homosexuality. I mostly agree with the editorial, if you can believe that.
