Federalism, huh? Damn, you've turned me around again, Cathryn.

But, what about Article IV, Section 1:

"Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State."

Will this mean that sensible folks in California will be required to acknowledge the legitimacy of the crazy marriages that the screwballs in Texas might allow?

I see your anti-Texas bias coming through again, Scenic. You'd better watch that - don't you want to be seen as fair and even handed? :-)

I see your point; but I still don't think that every problem must be solved by something so serious as a Constitutional amendment. If we must regulate this at a federal level, why can't we use a regular statute to do so?
