Welcome to the 21st century, where human dignity takes precedence over centuries old intolerance. I wonder how long it will take for others to do the right thing.
I love the name of their ceremony............
The new Episcopal same-sex liturgy, called the Witnessing and Blessing of a Lifelong Covenant, would be a standard rite for same-sex marriage.

It's good news.
They are not the first US church to allow same-sex marriages, though. The Quakers and the Unitarian-Universalists have allowed it for years.
