Hank’s Prologue:
- Hank describes the enormous implications of same-sex marriage. The redefinition of marriage is no small thing. At all times and in all cultures, marriage has always been between a man and a woman. Yet contrary to this, Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy said that those who want to exclude same-sex marriage do so out of hate and animus. What should be obvious to Kennedy, however, is that every redefinition of marriage, including his own, excludes someone. The problem is that if you redefine the meaning of a word, you change the thing itself. And at some point we may find it hard to communicate an idea for which we no longer have a word. Despite the magnitude of this redefinition, the leaders of at least three mainline Protestant denominations have celebrated the Supreme Court’s legalization of same-sex marriage.
