Anti-marriage rally planned at Seattle sports arena

A contingent of multifaith clergy members will lob a key pitch tomorrow, hoping to fill the 47,000 seats of Seattle, Washington's Safeco Field from noon to 2 p.m. for what they've termed a Mayday for Marriage rally. The organizers, a group of area pastors using TV ads and a public-relations firm, have booked religious-conservative darling James Dobson, who has called the consequences of losing the gay-marriage fight "dire." Pro-gay-marriage activists plan to respond with a "welcoming party" just outside Safeco Field. A vigil by Soulforce in Washington, a national interfaith gay-rights group, also is planned.
