Just like scripture, everybody interprets the constitution differently. And the social context is exactly the same. Both are attempts to put the brakes on social change and as such having limited success.
I had to laugh at myself and everybody else when we went to a Bill Gaither Homecoming concert. Gaither is, for those of you who don't know him, an impresario of old time gospel music, with a talented stable of performers and crew who sell their own materials (CDs, etc.)in the lobbies during and after the show. As always I look for religious right content in this stuff, just for observation's sake, not to protest it or anything (Gaither's wife Gloria apparently cowrote some stuff with Shirley Dobson, wife of the PRR powerhouse Jim D.) but there was nada. I was sizing up the audience, most of which seemed to be salt of the earth type folks from small evangelical churches. Finally as we were leaving we saw one Bush-Cheney sticker on one car. That was it.
But I did note one thing: The audience was 99.9% white but there were at least three Black Man-White Woman couples-the sort of people Loving corrected the suppression of. I had to laugh at how innocuous they seemed, yet 50 years previous in a similar crowd they'd have been anathema.
I think in another 50 years same gender couples will be just as innocuous at such events.
