Now that the gay marriage debate with Matt has come to an end, I’d like to give you commenters a chance to ask me any questions about my position on marriage and its ties to tradition and the State. Basically the same thing we did after the post on bisexuality. I can’t promise I’ll get to all of them, but I can guarantee I’m not going to be able to pick all of the questions addressed to me (as opposed to other commenters or hypothetical, possibly-made-of-straw atheists) out of the growing comment threads.

So here are the rules:

Only questions you want me to answer should be posted as comments to this entry. It’s fine to post non-questions or questions for commenters as replies to questions, but they can’t be original posts. This will make it a lot easier for me to find the things you actually want me to address.

Questions should be primarily related to marriage.** Yes, “Why do you think some things are better than others?” technically has a bearing on marriage, but c’mon. This is a look-at-the-results-of-my-metaphysics prompt.
