I do so love Bill Donohue!

"The idea of two men getting married is the most bizarre idea in human history...The whole purpose of marriage is to have a family. It's not about making people happy. It's not about love."
—Catholic League president Bill Donohue

Of my married friends, the ones who are childless vastly outnumber those with children. I'd peg the numbers at four couples with children out of 15-20, and two of those marriages ended in divorce, so they're now broken homes. The reasons for no progeny vary from family history of schizophrenia to a dismal view of where the world is heading. My wife and I tried to have children but it didn't happen. So I guess according to Bill, we're not really married.

I'm also amused by his specific 'two men'. No mention of women. So I guess he's okay with IVF but not adoption?

Yeah, to me that's always been an argument that quickly eats itself. If marriage=procreation, we'd better ban it for childfree types, infertile individuals, women over 45 or so, and on and on and on.
