Personally, I think marriage should not be any business of the state. It's a religious institution and the government should stay out of it completely. I definitely disagree with the stunt the NJ Supreme Court pulled by basically telling the Legislature they had to make a law. If there must be a law regarding marriage, then I think referendum is probably the way to go. I also disagree with federalizing the issue by forcing states NOT to allow same-sex marriages. Arizona, for example, opted not to pass a marriage amendment, so if some state were to pass a same-sex marriage law (as may happen in Massachusetts), then they should have the right to maintain that law.

Well, you have to realize that in Massachusetts the courts basically did force the legislature to legalize it there to (the NJ court probably just copy and pasted for their perverted tastes). I don't doubt that they will TRY to legalize it in MA, but if they do sure you are right (I think it's disgusting, and INSANE!) and I would not like it, but hey if it was done legislatively I would fight it, but I couldn't complain about a "rigged system" like I can now..

I too like Pence, hopefully he will decided to run someday (maybe even for Gov. you never know...)!
