What happens if a gay couple gets married in New York and moves to Georgia. Are they still married?

I was about to come back and say that I’m being ambiguous.

This might be where I become a public enemy...but I think there are some people who are gay and who are born that way.

These people have a right to be conservatives.

I know that FR is the site for God and country and allthat....

I will say that in my life I have met great conservative men... who are gay. I would no sooner marry them than I would decide to join Warren Jeff’s cult. Oddly, I’ve known a few lesbians and they were all uber-libs.

Deep down... I think we ALL know that they gay people are gay.

They are not still married as far as insurance benefits and things. They are not considered married except as they see it themselves. There are no spousal rights.

Exactly! Who decides between New York and Georgia? The Supreme Court or Congress will rule, one way or another. That’s what libertarians totally miss in this debate. If conservatives sit idly by, liberals in the courts and government will force the homosexual agenda on every state.

Conservatives should not be fooled by “everyone relax, just leave gay marriage up to the states and nobody will bother you.” That’s a convenient argument for libertarians who don’t care about social issues. But not for conservatives who worry about the future of marriage and civilization.
