Aaron Sorkin To Adapt ‘Steve Jobs’ for Sony

YESYESYESYESYESYES!

I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I have talked to friends and family and neighbors when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together, when I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage, at a certain point I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married.

Just as God created the world with words, those of us made in his image use words to create worlds as well. As post-moderns remind us, the way we name and describe our realty gives it shape, definition, and clarity. This is good. Yet, the same words we use to understand also obscure. Our words reduce our ability to comprehend reality because they under or over-define. This is not good. God transcends our ability to name and describe. Every moment of reality is too complex for any description to do it justice. Every description we give is selective and distorted. Consequently, while there is no understanding of God apart from words, words ultimately fail us in the spiritual realm. Perhaps that is why when God wanted to make himself as clear a possible he did not send a book but a person.
