Religious activists say Massachusetts decision is monumental—and may be cause for revolt

This roundup of comments is not to say that religious conservatives—or even that these religious conservatives—aren't talking about the specifics of yesterday's decision, and what it means specifically for Massachusetts civic and family life. But it certainly is interesting to see how pundits (from all sides, actually) almost universally suggest that the decision isn't really monumental in itself, but in what it portends for the future on a national scale. For example, some are debating whether the decision will lead to the legalization of adult incestuous marriages and polygamous marriages.
In any case, this decision is huge news, both in itself and in its implications. There are therefore far too many articles and comments for Weblog to round up. If you're really interested in the subject, check out two other blogs: MarriageMovement.org and MarriageDebate.com.
