Bronze Age bigotry

The first country to legalise gay marriage was the Netherlands, and that was in 2001. You seem to have a very broad definition of "Bronze Age" if you think it only ended around 20 years ago.

Did you intentionally misinterpret what I wrote or was it accidental?

What did you mean, then?

That bigotry rooted in Bronze Age superstition still influences decisions. Which I find, to put it nicely, regrettable.

It's not "rooted in Bronze Age superstition".

You're right, there is likely some overlap with some Iron Age superstition too.

But it's [current year], all the things I agree with should be obvious to everyone!
