Isn't same-sex marriage a construct of LIBERALism?

I think that's oversimplifying, but there are elements in common. It certainly involves hijacking the state to exert social change.

I wish the FF's had addressed this when they wrote the Constitution... then we wouldn't have to deal with it now.

I think there are things that should never be addressed by the government. They addressed the issue of religion by leaving it out. That wasn't an accident.

I don't mind Wiccans marrying pigeons, as long as my stamp of approval isn't lodged on file in the county seat in the form of a civic certificate.

The statists who will to enforce their unshared morals through the power of government, with their attempt to erradicate the values that established a need for marriage in the first place, are the real threat. If the Founding Fathers didn't address it it was because no mere Constitution can withstand such a threat.

You have a point(s). I'll have to digest this for a bit. Thanks.
