Same-sex marriage : exploring the issues / Scott A. Merriman.

Summary:

"The subject of same-sex marriage, including its intersection with the subject of religion, has exploded onto the cultural and political scene in the last 50 years. Before 1970, no state acted to ban same-sex marriage. In fact, it wasn't until 1970 that asame-sex couple applied for (and was denied) a marriage license in the United States. Thus, nearly 200 years after our country was founded, the subject was not even on most people's radars. Now, just about 50 years later, same sex-marriage is legal across America"-- Provided by publisher.
