It seems to me that the American landscape is becoming too diverse for the current or traditional institutions to remain.
School districts in America have had to cease honoring Jewish/Christian holidays because members of other faith groups whose children also attended wanted to know why their own holidays couldn't be celebrated.
Sikhs, Muslims, Buddhists, Mormons, and plenty of other such groups have pushed in the past for their own religious holidays to be honored by government officials.
But because this would cause an undo burden on the system, public institutions are increasingly ditching any religious exemptions.
When asked about the future of America and the whole LGBT movement, I think something very similar will happen.
LGBT's are pushing for 'marriage,' which really means they want LEGAL recognition of their unions. But if the legal definition of marriage is obscured by people wanting different 'types of marriages' accepted, the legal purpose behind marriage as an institution may become pointless, causing it to be done away with.
Do you guys think that is what will happen?
