Lisa Miller wrote up a defense of same-sex marriage from the Biblical perspective in Newsweek earlier this week that I haven't had a chance to link to. It's a lot of the same arguments that queer, Christian and Jewish theologians have been making for a while, but presented in a mainstream, Serious Publication. So it got some attention, and is worth the read if you're not familiar with those arguments.

Today Jim Burroway over at Box Turtle Bulletin has excerpts from just a few of the fundies who are pissed off at this article. And you all probably already know what I'm thinking: if these folks are getting their collective panties in a bunch over this, then it's probably the right direction to be going in.
