Leonard Pitts "Backward" view on Marriage

I am appalled and offended that Columnist Leonard Pitts would characterize North Carolina voters' support for traditional marriage as "a step backward".

To concur with the president that his opinion on a broadening definition of marriage is an "evolved opinion" is as brutish and backward as deciding that the sun still revolves around the earth.

The egocentricity of a minority population of voters, to change the fundamental definition of marriage, hardly constitutes a furtherance of civil rights. It is a civil and moral wrong to rewrite marriage as a consensual union of two individuals. One man, one woman, one marriage is the ideal standard for faith, family, and the future of this country.

If anyone possesses a "backward" opinion, it would be Mr. Pitts, railing against the legitimate support of the established super-majority of a state and the country on an issue which has no business being debated so casually in the first place.
