Technically all those state laws that limit their marriage licenses to one man and one woman are void at this point. Unless they change their laws, there are no marriage laws in those states. So under this ruling there is no basis for the states to even issue marriage licenses to opposite sex couples.

I would agree that the Governors of those states should simply order that all county clerks cease and desist from issuing any marriage licenses at all.

I would also direct all couples who wish to be married to file for a license at the Federal Building in their county.

Then let the Supreme Court enforce their order.

Also those churches that oppose gay marriage should continue to solemnize marriages on a religious basis, but stop signing the marriage certificates. They should direct their parishoners to go through the civil process to get state recognition of their marriage, but if they want God’s blessing then they can get married in a religious ceremony at the church.

Marriage no longer has any meaning in this country. If the state recognizes same sex unions as “marriage” then what is the point of getting the state’s approval of your opposite sex marriage?

Marriage has always been a commitment before God. You do not need the imprimatur of the State, especially when the imprimatur also recognizes sodomy as a legitimate form of marriage.

The churches need to stand up against this ruling. Unfortunately many of the churches these days will “celebrate” this ruling.
