RE :”When U.S. District Chief Judge Vaughn R. Walker struck down California’s Proposition 8, the subsequent hubbub centered primarily around whether the decision was an example of judicial activism. Whether Walker, or any federal judge, is within their jurisdiction to rule on a state’s constitution is an entirely separate argument from whether the institution of marriage ought to be redefined.
No matter which side of the latter issue you support, it is of greater importance to the integrity of our republican jurisprudence that we all embrace the correct answer to the former. It is the purview of the states to craft family law, not federal judges. “

This aspect bothers me way more than individual states deciding to marry same sex partners. Also I don't like the states telling the federal government that they must redefine marriage (’to two human beings’) wrt federal benefits. But if a liberal state wants to create same sex marriages, especially through their elected legislature, let them.

We must keep the debate centered on the effects of SSM... children will be denied a mother or a father if SSM is codified.

The power of celebrities in this country is the catalyst for the end of it. Hollywood culture is becoming the model for American culture. I just don’t understand the appeal for that lifestyle. Yeah, I get the fame and fortune part. But beyond that, I see only emptiness: narcisim, broken families, overemphasis of sex, booze and drugs.

I love men but you won’t see me running around in the streets declaring it!! (I’m a woman for those of you who may not know).
