I've got a perfect way to push the limits on same-sex marriage in a manner that will make a statement.
I need to find a 90+ year old single person who is willing to get "married" to one of his or her own grandchildren or great-grandchildren. Once the Court's own ruling in this case is used to justify a marriage between family members, we can hasten the demise of Social Security and other pension funds by providing widows' survivor benefits to someone who may very well collect them for 70+ years.

Gov Romney of Mass simply stated (concerning marriage), "I believe 3000 years of recorded history and not the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts." My self, living in Massachusetts its nice not having a pagen for a governor.

If the Federal Marriage Amendment is enacted, will that negate any same-sex marriage that occur in MA?

If the legislature needs more that 180 for a constitutional referendum they should just ban all marriage in Mass. until this is accomplished. No licenses for anyone is equal protection under the law. Let the courts chew on that.

I'm sorry, but I just don't get it. I don't see how letting gays marry each other is so detrimental to the institution of marriage. I say live and let live. I don't give a crap who anybody marries. It's none of my business. I certainly do understand though why gays would want to marry, and it's not all about recognition of their lifestyle (which I personally find creepy). Mainly it's about money and protecting assets. It's about having the same protections that other couples who make the life long commitment to each enjoy. For instance, if two gays split up after being together for years, they have a really hard time getting equitable property division by the courts. Problems pop up in estate planning and other areas for gay couples that really can't be adequately addressed by contracts.
I'm totally opposed to a Constitutional Amendment banning gay marriage. I suggest what the rest of you do is just wait and see how this works out in the countries and states that allow it. Sooner or later you'll all see that the sky is not going to fall. This isn't going to effect normal families. It's not going to lead to our society turning into one giant Sodom and Gomorrah.
Man I just wish people would live and let live. I can't believe what busybodies so many supposed conservatives are. You guys are turning our nation into the worst kind of nanny state that micromanages every aspect of our lives.

Clearly, it is high time to strike back at these tyrannical judges who believe that they know better than anybody else, what should be in the "constitution" (rather than what is) agreed to by the people. The legislature and/or the people should start removing these smarmy bastards from office!

And marriage developed because sexual risk is asymmetrical: Men and women face different risks when they sleep together. Men risk committing resources to care for children that may not be their own. Women risk being abandoned and left to care for a fatherless child. Marriage developed to minimize these risks. That's why no society - even among those that did have a social role for some expressions of male homosexuality - has instituted same-sex marriage until the past decade. This is disappointing BS. Marriage was institued by God it didn't develop on it's own in some sort of evolutionary process.

How We Should Respond?
Our response should come within, to save our own marriages instead of denying others the right to get married.
We should respond by not getting divorced. Until heterosexuals stop getting divorces, we have no right to claim that others are destroying marriage.
