So, does this mean it covers a father having sex with his 18 year old daughter if it's consensual?

Does this open the door to legal incest?

What about bestiality?

This case was about opening the floodgates of perversion and tearing down all cultural norms.

This is just a big first step in getting the court to add homosexuality to civil rights statutes such that they can get around the laws that states have passed against recognition of gay marraige...and make it a civil rights penalty to deny it.

As Hannity just said, "Does this mean a priest will be arrested if he refuses to marry gays"?

This is a huge opening volley in the culture war....

The worst decision this court has ever handed down, even worse than the affirmative action decision...

While the decision is deplorable, Roe v. Wade is, without a doubt, the worst decision ever rendered by the Supreme Court.

Now that the Court has recognized a homosexuals as a minority group (gee, what desire can we come up with that will grant us such status?), what effect will this have on the elevated issue of diversity? Will AA include homoseuxals now? Will schools etc...be allowed to seek a critical mass?

Hannity's argument is stupid. Priests and pastors can refuse to marry heterosexual couples now for any number of reasons. Being married by a priest or pastor is not a right. People can have a civil marriage.

Mr. Justice Kennedy, for the Court:

"These references show an emerging awareness that liberty gives substantial protection to adult persons in deciding how to conduct their private lives in matters pertaining to sex"

Does he have any idea what he's just said?
