The Court seems heading to negate anything that impacts freedom or equality, religion regardless. Freedom and equality rules.
Those of us never thought that the government created for freedom of religion would be interpreted as freedom from religion. The remedy is a constitutional amendment similar to the first ten [to protect us from government]. The new ‘ten’ would be to make sure that government itself is not the destroyer of religion.
Did they not do this already with health care?
If marriage between same-sex members is allowed, then polygamy and marriage between sisters/brothers, mothers/daughters, fathers/daughters, marriage between two or more COUPLES, etc... MUST be allowed as well, right?
I mean, since birth issues are no longer the primary reason that marriage is sanctioned by the government, then doesn’t that mean they are no longer a valid reason to DENY them marriage? And since “love” will now be the main reason marriage is allowed, regardless of the gender, can’t someone fall in love with more than one person? So, shouldn’t their right to be in love be recognized?
This is a MUCH bigger can of worms than people think! If you think inheriting massive wealth is a problem now, wait until an octogenarian man marries his 19 year old great-grand daughter, so that everything in the family simply stays within the family! In some states, this ELIMINATES the inheritance taxes, in others, it drops it from the 15-20% rate down to 2-4%!
This is going to get MUCH uglier before it pans out. And it is NOT going to actually help anyone become “normal” in the eyes of those who see homosexuality as a serious sin!
Yes.
“In many of these cases, no real conflict existed (no hardship to any same-sex couple) but simply a desire from same-sex marriage supporters to bring about test cases to challenge laws or the insatiable desire of a reckless, sympathetic media to create a story. “
No, it’s to PUNISH those who disagree. The press and PR campaign is secondary.
Wow... someone finally stated the agenda of the left. Out loud.
Good for them.
