As crazy as this sounds I had the same idea a while back.

If traditional marriage law which born most of us naturally is unconstitutional then it should be thrown out, so Americans really understand what this is about.

Its one thing to throw out laws, another for the courts to write them , like a new gay marriage law.

But they wont, there are 5 justices including Kenndy who think its their job to fuel certain social movements, not rule on laws. And so changing the definition is the way for them to do it.

Doesn’t sound crazy at all. I’ve thought that for a decade or more.

I also don’t want a federal definition of baptism, nor one of reconciliation, nor of bar/bat mitzvahs, last rites, etc.

Let civil unions be the only thing a judge/justice of the peace/cruise ship captain/elvis impersonator can bestow upon a couple. It should be much like LLC formation.

The federal definition of marriage is little more than a means of bribing the people through a tax definition.
