UnMarriage Until Gay Marriage

Popular performance artist Rev. Billy and his Church of Life After Shopping will stage a mass un-wedding in Central Park this Sunday.
Straight, married supporters of same sex marriage will un-marry in a mass ritual at New York City's Bethesda Angel this Valentine's Day weekend, sending a strong message to New York State's leadership for the for the second year in a row and holding Gov Cuomo to his recent campaign promise:“I want to be the governor who signs the law that makes equality a reality in the state of New York.” The mass ritual will be administered by Reverend Billy, an officiant of the rites of marriage in the City of New York. The massive "unwedding," in the style of Reverend Moon's mass weddings, will be accompanied by music and love songs and a choral anthem called "I Do, I Do".
Rev. Billy's group marched in front of us in last year's NYC Pride Parade and he was so tickled by the name of this here website thingy that he shouted it repeatedly from his megaphone. I do believe I'll be at the Bethesda Fountain this Sunday.
