Sorry went out for dinner:

September 29, 1789 (1 Stat. 95), March 23, 1792 (1 Stat. 243), 1818 Pension Act (3 Stat. 410), May 15, 1823 (4 Stat. 269), and July 4, 1836 (5 Stat. 128).

" society could determine both the definition of marriage and the appropriateness of spouses/children receiving those funds via the jury."

Do you have the audacity to suggest that those who wrote the Constitution had homosexual marriage on their minds?

Look what the Feds did to bigamy in the 19th century, lol. You do support this homosexual expansion (hence your "society cop-out), you are just too scared to admit that on this forum.

No, I have the audacity to suggest that they had the audacity to leave things out of the control of the government and in the control of the States, or the people.

No, I just severely distrust the FedGov and think ceding any more authority to it is stupid. The 4th is explicit, as is the 6th, yet the NSA abused it's ability and power legally, though not lawfully, justified by the FISA-court.

If then our highest law is discarded and other twisted legalisms (based on Federal law, regulation, and/or *spit* precedence) are held higher than that then what will come of defining marriage in the federal level?
Seriously, you're begging for more tyranny.

Liar. That is the only reply you will get from me from this point on.
