So so. Cal Thomas’ brain is not as sharp as it used to be. I don’t say that to be mean. I say that in disappointment because I used to rely on him to put voice to my opinions.

Let them vote yes.
Let them destroy America from the bottom up.
See what happens.
To fix a rotten building, you have to destroy it, and build something new.
Fundamental transformations don’t just happen.

So you need Cal Thomas to voice your opinion? The first Amendment give you the right, as it does give it to Cal Thomas, or anyone else

Even if SCOTUS does decide that the States may make their own laws on this, the Gaystapo will bully voters in the States to pass their legislation. The vote in California several years ago went gainst Gay marriage. Afterwards, a judge forced the anti-gay marriage groups to disclose their donors and the Gaystapo started personally bullying the donors. Remember the CEO that was forced out because he had donated to the Yes on Prop 8 legislation? And the California judge who ruled against the Yes crowd was gay and said he 'could be unbiased’. The control the Dems exert, often by barely legal means or even illegal means, is overwhelming.

Kennedy should never be allowed to live down his line of judicial bullsh!t from Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992): At the heart of liberty is the right to define ones own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life.
Oh, sweet mystery of life . . .
Perhaps he knows his legacy is on the line. He doesn't need to further ensure his membership in the club of disgraced judges.

... whether it is appropriate for the Court to discard a definition of marriage that "has been with us for millennia,"
Well, all this BS picked up steam from the SJC of MA when the South African chick that's married to a Slimes columnist said "Marriage is an evolving paradigm" and gave its okay to the "marriage" between other than man and woman.

If this is allowed, I don’t think God will look kindly on this country. It will be like referent Wright said God damn this country

The problem for traditionalists -- especially those who believe scripture is the sole authority in such matters -- is that in an increasingly secular society where younger people are less attuned to appeals about an Authority higher than themselves, how can they be persuaded that same-sex marriage is a bridge too far? They can be persuaded by teaching them history and biology. The fact that marriage has certain characteristics that are universal regardless of culture or religion is a reflection of the biological basis of marriage.
The fact that a lot of young people really think the purpose of life is to indulge every desire (especially sexual), while avoiding all responsibility, does not change the fact that there is one reason any living organism exists. That is to produce young to keep the species alive. Gay "marriage" cannot exist, because the biological function of marriage simply is not there.

This Supreme Court hearing was sham, a show trial and any ruling in favor of mandatory acceptance of sodomy is arguably void on its face.
First: No federal court has jurisdiction to judge marriage as marriage is neither a right nor a privilege. For proof of this fact try to marry your adult sibling. As such its not covered under the 14ths jurisdiction, nor is it a civil rights claim.
Second: Marriage is an establishment of religion. The First Amendment bars the government from changing it.
Third: Kagan and Ginsberg by publicly advocating for forced public acceptance of sodomy have demonstrated a bias as well as conflict of interest requiring them to recuse themselves from the case. They have not done so.
The absence of the forgoing arguments in front of the court and the refusal to recuse themselves by the two who have shown the most conflict of interest in the case are proof the hearing was a sham.

A verse from the Book of Judges seems to define America in 2015, as we sink deeper into a moral and cultural morass: "In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as he saw fit." (Judges 21:25) Indeed.

No I don’t need him. What a weird take on what I said. I just used to enjoy his columns and now I don’t really give a rip. He is not nearly as good as he used to be.
It used to be I would submit letters to the editor and once in a great while one would be printed. Cal Thomas was there once or twice a week. That is all I meant.

>>> They can be persuaded by teaching them history and biology.
Think about the body’s sytems. God gave you a nervous system, a circulatory system, an endocrine system, a skeletal system, a digestive system, etc.
But He only gave you 1/2 a reproductive system.
Think about it.

It is not that I have a particular problem with this article. It is just that it is not the home run sort of column he used to write. It is just eh...

Don’t like the definition of a word? Just redefine it.
If they want to redefine “marriage” this opens the door to a whole host of new definitions: male, female, adult, child, consent, sober, legal, robbery, armed, divorce, truth, justice, rights, insanity, normal, government, voter, immigrant, election, treaty, majority, army, nation, war, peace, “is”, ....
Why stop at just “marriage” ???

Since the ‘rats have killed the rule of law and Traitor Roberts issued pretzel logic rulings, the SCOTUS is a joke and should be ignored.
