On gay marriage, it is all over but the shouting. But there will be some shouting.
Nothing proved that more this week than when same-sex marriage arrived in Alabama, which ultimately led to an epic and at times rambling 20-minute-plus conversation Thursday between Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore and CNN's Chris Cuomo. It was repetitive, in the weeds, and in some ways futile, foreshadowing the type of framing at least some prominent conservatives will maintain as they keep up the fight against same-sex marriage.
Moore dubbed the whole thing a "federal intrusion in state sovereignty."
"No judge of the United States or federal district court has the right to invent the definition of marriage, which is not even contained in the United States Constitution," he said. "And that's the problem; we have people going in trying to mandate to the state of Alabama that the sanctity of marriage amendment in our constitution is wrong, and that's simply not right to do."

Man is not autonomous. Man is subject to the final word of the Creator.
Nia is dancing in arrogant celebration because she believes her side will ultimately prevail.
She will not.
I LOVE how the left think the PEOPLE should decide, well except when they “Don’t decide correctly”....
You know like all those states that passed STATE CONSITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS to BAN GHEY MARRIAGE.....
Cuomo said that man’s rights come from “people” ... So how about it California....?????
A “law” enacted by the judiciary is not a valid law.
The time may soon come for Christians to stand on their principles, consequences be damned. The state cannot force us to go against our consciences without making martyrs, unless we allow them to.
“I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.” - Martin Luther
They declare gay marriage done... now onto pedophilia!!
Conservatives thought that this fight was about culture, morality, values, and the importance of the family to society.
The Left proved that it was just about money and they won.

It’s over when God says it is and it may be sooner than we think. Woe to those who have taken a position against the Holy Scriptures.
Is there any way to pop this bubble? You can't vote these people out. So what can you do?
Amendment IXThe enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
There are two reasons the Holy One will take down the USA. That is the issue of the murder of innocents ( abortion) and gay marriage.
It’s in the Book. And God has said it so nine black robed renegades against the Lord will lose it all in the end.

The day is coming quickly where these un-elected judges and their enablers will get what they deserve. They will push too far. Right now the Supreme Court is set up once again to spark a Civil War like it did with the Dred Scott decision.

Judicial activism will destroy this union and in essence it already has except for the fireworks.
Gain control of the media, pop culture, and education. That’s what the queers did.
Even when there were God-fearing justices who made honest interpretions of the Constitution in deciding a case, if the states didn’t like how the Supremes decided a case then state lawmakers knew that they could “overturn” a case decision by appropriately amending the Constitution.
In fact, the 11th, 16th, 19th, and other amendments are examples of the states doing so.
But with all due respect to mom & pop, as a consequence of parents not making sure that their children are being taught the differences between legislative, executive and judicial powers, even state lawmakers evidently regard justices as priests whose interpretation of the Constitution is infallible no matter how twisted such interpretations actually are.
This time around, the outcome of the WBTS will be far, far different. In the 1860s, the South was essentially an isolated and rather poor region without much in the way of industry. The economy was largely based on one product, cotton.
Fast forward to the 21st Century and the South leads the way in terms of the core principles of Godliness, life, freedom and liberty. The South is a juggernaut economically with the nation's manufacturing base backed by the finest military educations. The people are better educated with Christian-based schools such as Harding, Liberty, Bob Jones and Oklahoma Christian -- far surpassing the faux learning at marxist indoctrination centers in the Ivy League. Guns are plentiful in the South as opposed to the disarmed citizens in liberal cesspools. Another factor unlike the 19th Century is that other regions, part of the Patriotic midwest, will join forces with the South to wage war on the communist elites. The South (and its allies) are an unstoppable force that will result in the emergence of a renewed America, built on the Biblical principles that inspired the Constitution. I think Alabama plays a leadership role in the fight since it's now ground zero as liberty is under assault from the communists.
It's just too confusing for them with regard to how to provide benefits, who gets benefits, what happens when certain employees relocate to different states where the laws are different, etc.
Similar economic arguments are made on FR with regard to insurance, i.e. that the feds should force all states to allow all insurance companies to provide insurance.
When the business-wing of the Republican Party and the liberal and left-libertarians agree on something it's hard to see how it can be stopped or reversed.
More proof that the Left is insane, as if we needed more proof.
There are some matters where argument is pointless, because there is no conceivable common ground. People who favor same-sex “marriage” have minds totally alienated from reality, but stuffed with Marxist verbiage. As a result, it is impossible to find any premises on which they and civilized people agree.
The current “culture” does not know what a “man,” a “woman,” or “marriage” are. The vast majority of young Protestants, Catholics, and unchurched people think “gay marriage” is the most obvious issue of “justice,” or “fairness” imaginable.
The argument is all over. The .04% of the population who want to enter into a “gay marriage” will do so. Those people are pretty much irrelevant.
The STATE will, however, use “gay marriage” as a bludgeon against Christianity.
