I'm not confident of anything coming out of the Congress passing, because it ultimately will have to be an over-ride of a veto, and that requires 2/3 of each house. See below. If I'm wrong on this, then I'm more than open to correction. I hear candidates talking about amendments, laws, impeachment, etc., and I look at the 75%, 66%, and 66% votes required, AND I KNOW ABOUT IT, so I wonder why those folks don't know about it.

In my opinion, the only way forward on this is nullification. As you've noticed NOT ONE governor has called for such action. NOT ONE has called for demonstrations in the street. In fact, over the weekend NOT ONE Christian leader that I've heard of has called for Christians in the street protesting, and I've heard of no such protests anyplace. I've heard them saying "civil disobedience" and by that they mean they personally won't marry homosexuals. Well, that kind of action will not be forced by the new tyranny for some time.

We will within 2 decades, imho, be the old Greco-Roman culture, which the Apostle Paul operated in effectively, but with danger. Polygamy will become law. Drugs and prostitution will be legal. Idol-based religions will flourish. In my opinion, we are entering 'the great falling away."

I suppose revolution/rebellion is another way forward, but I doubt seriously that people who won't get in the streets to protest will get in the streets to fight.

Article I, Section 7: "Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States;[2] If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law. But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively. If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law.

Every Order, Resolution, or Vote to which the Concurrence of the Senate and House of Representatives may be necessary (except on a question of Adjournment) shall be presented to the President of the United States; and before the Same shall take Effect, shall be approved by him, or being disapproved by him, shall be repassed by two thirds of the Senate and House of Representatives, according to the Rules and Limitations prescribed in the Case of a Bill.

I agree. I think of all the work Paul did and his trials. Paul wrote so many books of the NT. He has a distinct way of writing. A friend sent me a John MacArthur study Bible and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. I am afraid the SCOTUS were as mistaken as the Sadducees were when Jesus told them you are mistaken not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God. Sadly, chaplain I am very disgusted and upset with this country. How could every general officer and every man in both houses of Congress allow our military to become infected with homos and lesbians? Who stood up and said -NO? None that I am aware of.

Sodom and Gemorrah is the USA. I pray some wake up.
