"The defense of traditional marriage was fatally compromised by the Attorney General’s failure to defend the role that marriage plays in promoting the true good of the spouses and children who enter the family."

I strongly disagree with this guy. The defense of traditional marriage was fatally compromised once governments got into the business of giving out marriage licenses in the first place. The best defense against same-sex marriage is to shake the dust off our feet and stop pretending that a government's definition of "marriage" means -- or ever did mean -- anything at all.

I can easily see the day when people with serious religious inclinations simply stop getting "licenses" when they get married.

I think he is absolutely right. The AG made a huge blunder in not defending those "rights" given to heterosexual marriage as being based especially for the benefit of children raised in a natural and normal relationship.

That left the court with only the argument they used...that the state had no reason to prohibit same sex couples from those benefits.

Because the state of NJ has stupidly promoted homosexuals the court was left with little choice.

You cannot really disagree that the state has no onterest in marriage: the tax deducts, the right of inheritance and the rest all develope stability.
