The IL State House passed a gay rights bill today:
"SPRINGFIELD -- Gays and lesbians won a long, hard-fought victory Tuesday after the Illinois House passed and sent to Gov. Blagojevich anti-discrimination legislation that had languished at the Statehouse for more than a decade.
Blagojevich signaled plans to quickly sign the bill amid objections from religious groups concerned it might be interpreted in a way that would force them, for example, to hire gay or lesbian teachers in religious schools against church doctrine"
Obviously, supporters of the bill say it is not going to lead to gay marriage. As I said yesterday, any and every battle that the gay community can fight, they will. None is too small. The more victories on every level that they obtain, the more legitimate, legally and socially, they become, and the harder it will be to protect traditional Christian values.
