Another lesson we MUST learn: the Judicial Branch of the government (SCOTUS) has NO power to make national law. The Constitution limits the scope SCOTUS’ power to INDIVIDUAL CASES AND CONTROVERSIES (U.S. Const, art. III, Sec. 2, Cl. 1). The ONLY branch constitutionally authorized to make nation law is the Legislative Branch - Congress (”ALL legislative powers...” art. I, sec. 1).
THAT can also not be emphasized enough.

So, does that mean that the decision to legalize gay marriage by the Kennedy led opinion of the SCOTUS is NOT BINDING on the States?
