Judges don’t have law making powers, did someone forget that?

Hmmm. Seems to be a rash of these “decisions” lately.

Collusion between the Just Us Department and judges?

They aren’t looking at the rule of law anymore for guidance.

Having laws that permitted slavery did not give any moral legitimacy to pretending that one man could be the property of another man. Similarly, having laws that permit gay “marriage” does not give any moral legitimacy to pretending that one man could be the spouse of another man. They seem to be winning the battle to pretend that these relationships are marriage, but changing the words does not change reality no matter how much the far left wishes that would work.

That does it.

I’ve known three awesome women since moving out of my Mommy’s house 35 years ago.

I think I’ll marry them all.

Since we won’t be alone so often I figure there won’t so much disagreement with each other.

Besides, they’ll have to compete with each other for my affection or we can work out an arrangement.

We are, after all, consenting adults and should be allowed to enter into any relationship we desire.

It’ll be a threefer wedding and I’ll save some cash on the whole shu bang....

Marriage is between one man and one woman. Therefore, marriage is not possible between one man and one man or one woman and one woman or any combination other than one man and one woman. Hence, states are not obligated to recognize a marriage where one doesn’t exist. Where in the Constitution does it say that the federal government has any powers regarding sexual or marriage matters? If the Constitution doesn’t enumerate it then it doesn’t exist.

When Constitutional law is judge made and not rooted in the text and design of the Constitution it does not approach illegitimacy it is illegitimate root and branch .Justice White/Bowers v.Hardwick —”Human laws must be made according to the general laws of Nature,and without contradiction to any positive Law of Scripture ,otherwise they are ill made.” John Locke Of civil Government Book two XI 136 n. Wm.Blackstone “... law of Nature being coeval with mankind and dictated by God,Himself,is of course superior in obligation to any other.It is binding over all the globe in all countries,and at all times; no human laws are of any validity if contrary to this...Upon these two foundations, the law of nature and the law of revelation,depend all human laws; that is to say,no human law should be suffered to contradict these.” (Commentaries on the Laws of England, quoted by Hall christian history of the Constitution,pp 140-146-as published by John Eidsmoe Christianity and the Constitution.Baker Books paperback pp58;61 Notes 13 and 21
Note: in the Gospels according to Matthew chapter 19: verses 4-6—and before that was written,Make chapter 10: verses 6-8
Jesus,that Rabbi from Nazareth Teaching on the borders of Judea Across the Jordan— Was asked by a group of Pharisees —”is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for any reason?” The Pharisees were a lot like ACLU attorneys today,
Jesus answered “Have you not read that He which made them at the beginning made them male and female,and said ‘For this cause shall a man leave his father and his mother,and shall cleave unto his wife,and the two shall become one flesh...”Thus Jesus pointed to the Law ‘dictated by God,Himself” to Moses as we today can see reflected in Genesis chapter 1: verse 27;and Chapter 2 verse 24.James Teaching American Law at the College of Philadelphia n a lecture on the consequences of Marriage reflected the Scripture when he said “under American law the two become one.”And that is the foundation of our American Law on Marriage— so when any Judge says we must Now accept same sex marriage under American Law —that Judge is divorced from Blackstone and Locke—and Wilson and the rest and his opinion is ill made and invalid.
