Whose Wishful Thinking?

Leonard Steinhorn thinks that the right is bound to lose the culture war. To the extent that the cause involves actually legislating homosexuality out of existence, he's probably right. To the (larger) extent that it means living under a hypocritical regime of sanctions for "indecency" and society-wide guilt-trips over declining moral values, I don't think there's any end in sight. Since Tacitus at the absolute latest, there has never been anything but a surfeit of mourners over the decline of moral values.
