Rachel Maddow recently referred to one reason for the proposed revision of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy of the US Military as: "the arc of the universe bends toward justice." The origin of this quote can be traced to Martin Luther King, Jr., who in turn was quoting Unitarian Theodore Parker who said, "I do not pretend to understand the moral universe; the arc is a long one… And from what I see I am sure it bends toward justice.”
