"Selectman Richard Olson said tolerance toward those who signed the petition is as necessary as toward those who support gay marriage. 'If somebody feels for religious or other reasons that same sex marriage is wrong, they're entitled to it,' he said."
WRONG. WRONG WRONG WRONG. Let's replace his regular coffee with Folger's crystals.
"Selectman Richard Olson said tolerance toward those who own slaves is as necessary as toward those who support the abolition of slavery. 'If somebody feels for religious or other reasons that the abolition of slavery is wrong, they're entitled to it,' he said."
NO. There is NO TOLERANCE FOR THIS. There is no tolerance for hate, there is no tolerance for discrimination, there is no tolerance for denying rights to human beings. The people who feel this way must be told that they are WRONG.
People are not entitled to be wrong!!

There's plenty of cheating spouses as well, so only the woman can know if the kid is hers anyway. DNA testing seems a lot more reliable for determining family ties (except in the case of identical twins sharing sex partners or having sex with other identical twin pairs). DNA testing is already used extensively for child support and such.
