I was thorougly shocked and dismayed to hear that Queen Elizabeth II has signed a Gay Marriage Bill Into Law in England and Wales. One of her royal duties is Defender of the Faith. England has been going down the tubes from the great empire it once was for a long time now and, to me, that will be its final gasp. As a former British subject who was brought up under the Union Jack and taught to honor it and the monarchy it breaks my heart to see it, in the words of Daniel Patrick Moynihan, "defining deviancy downwards."

Just as in Big Brother, we have learned that we can lose jobs and friendships for speaking out against what is considered the norm--and that's becoming the norm.
And if they disagree, they can be bullied into thinking they're wrong. It's a sad state of affairs.
