The author is still operating under the presumption that the institution of marriage is a human convention and can be redefined legally by human agents. My presupposition is that marriage is instituted by an immutable creator. Both presuppositions are religious statements, one in affirmation of and one in denial of a transcendent creator. Thus an appeal to the separation clause of the the first amendment against a religious recognition of marriage is to separate from one religious principle, but to establish the other religious principle as law. The deceleration of independence appeals unashamedly to a creator; so to presume that the same framers then sought to legislate against recognition as a societal foundation is dishonest and logically fallacious. For those who hold the same presupposition as the framers declared as foundational to the establishment of the republic likewise affirm the courts are beyond their jurisdiction. Only God can “re-define” that which He has already instituted and regulated; for men in black robes or legislators or voters to attempt such folly is akin to the court redefining the gravitational constant. They can write it on the books, but the higher magistrate will only be persuaded of their attempted coup and usurpation. This will not end well.
All religions and anti-religions are equal in modern America.
Islam, Mormonism, the church of the gay goat lovers, the church of atheism, Catholic, Episcopalian, any and all the same in equality yet with different ideas of what marriage is.
You may be certain, I am less certain.
