Yes, it's trending towards secularism, and the republicans will have to change if they want to remain relevant. That's the problem with anything that stays rigid amidst a changing world.

What'll be great is in 10-20 years when they start making the claims that without the Young Christians, marriage equality would not have been possible. "The Bible teaches love for everyone."

They are behind the trend on abortion.
They are behind the trend on marijuana.
They are behind the trend on gay marriage.

Could there be a pattern?

Let's extend it back a little:
They were:
Behind the trend on interracial marriage.
Behind the trend on civil rights.
Behind the trend on women's suffrage.
Behind the trend on slavery.
Behind the trend on heliocentrism.
etc etc etc

Not quite. The the extent that there was an anti-slavery party, the Republicans were it. Lincoln was the first Republican in office. And the Southern Democrats were just as bad about civil rights, and interracial marriage as the GOP. Can we blame it on white Christian men and have done with?

They'll have to do more than get out of the bed they share with the religious right to get my consideration. They need to embrace science and stop being the party of stupid.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

And the ones that remain are so shrill and anti-reality in everything they say and do, they're repugnant to those that aren't zealous morons.
