read this thread to see what hppens when the gov’t gets involved. If the gov’t hadn’t the right to say who gets married in the first place, most people would have just shunned gay people who claimed to be married, which is a very small percentage of our population. Now they have a “legal right” to push it on our kids and businesses.
Again, the Common Law is very clear here, and is a pillar of American society.
You’ve knocked off one pillar just like that. What makes you think that trial by jury and habeaus corpus are going to be preserved?
This predates the constitution - the common law was in force in the colonies prior to the creation of the United States.
Yes, it is the law in America, has always been the law.
