    No full text
    A debate on issues surrounding same-sex marriage. Dwight Duncan, a professor at the Southern New England School of Law, is one of the nation\u27s leading conservative authorities on legal ethics and constitutional law. He has written extensively about First Amendment rights, euthanasia and same-sex marriage, and has participated in many legal debates on gay and lesbian rights. A practicing member of the Supreme Court of the United States Bar, Duncan is the principal co-author of the Supreme Court briefs on the prevailing side of Hurley v. Irish-American Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Organization, in which the court ruled that forcing a veteran\u27s group to include a gay faction in its yearly St. Patrick\u27s Day parade violated the First Amendment. Duncan holds degrees from Harvard University, Georgetown University Law School and the Roman Athenaeum of the Holy Cross in Rome, Italy. Richard Mohr, author of A More Perfect Union: Why Straight America Must Stand Up for Gay Rights and one of America\u27s foremost gay thinkers, is a professor of philosophy at the University of Illinois. In 1988, he published Gays/Justice, a book documenting gay public policy issues, and his Gay Ideas: Outing and Other Controversies, raised national furor in the literary world when almost two dozen publishers refused to print it due to homoerotic representations. Mohr lectures frequently on topics ranging from anti-gay violence, domestic partnership issues and the implementation of nondiscrimination policies for gays in the workplace
