Al Mohler responds to Newsweek's bald-faced assault on heterosexual marriage & the Bible. His conclusion:
The national news media are collectively embarrassed by the passage of Proposition 8 in California. Gay rights activists are publicly calling on the mainstream media to offer support for gay marriage, arguing that the media let them down in November. It appears that Newsweek intends to do its part to press for same-sex marriage. Many observers believe that the main obstacle to this agenda is a resolute opposition grounded in Christian conviction. Newsweek clearly intends to reduce that opposition.Read the whole article here.
Newsweek could have offered its readers a careful and balanced review of the crucial issues related to this question. It chose another path -- and published this cover story. The magazine's readers and this controversial issue deserved better.

I expect to see a lot more of this in the news shortly
I was at the Galleria waiting for a dinner appointment and saw the NewsWeek paper with that headline.

The Church surrendered the marriage issue (and several others) fifty years ago.
