For whatever reason, it has now become a mainstream opinion among judges, even those appointed by Republican presidents, that it is discriminatory not to allow homosexual marriage.
This is in spite of the fact that this whole area of “sexual identity” and “sexual orientation” is NOT a protected class under federal civil rights laws.
The judges have decided that homosexuality SHOULD BE a protected class, and issue ruling such as this based on the idea that homosexuality is a protected class.
Since homosexuality is not a protected class, civil rights laws and the 14th amendment should not apply. But according to judges, they have decided that they will rule for homosexual marriage in spite of what the laws and constitution actually say.
I keep thinking part of SCOTUS is hoping that the bans will all be overturned & homosexuals will all get married before SCOTUS ever rules that state bans on homosexual ‘marriages’ are constitutional. By then, they figure, it’ll be too late to turn the clock back.
What I don’t understand is why homosexuals didn’t accept civil unions instead of demanding marriage. They’d have gotten all the rights they aspire for. I think they’re just trying to destroy religion, since, right now, it’s the only thing saying homosexuality is wrong.
