The voting majority chose that ‘gay marriage’ is possible in four states. Marriage amendments lost in at least two states. And there are states whose marriage amendments only passed in the low 50% ranges a decade ago and would be likely be repealable by popular referendum eventually if not now. Not that they have to, because our black robed masters cut out the middle men.

In any case my point was that the state in the modern era only has those ways to define marriage for itself. 50-40 years ago they started to give us no-fault divorce, now ‘gay marriage.’

Man woman marriage ammendment in nc passed in 2013 60-40, nearly.

Many ammendments were passed in the last few years by large majorities, even California’s until overturned by the whim of a court.

Homosexual marriage is not a choice of the people. It is being imposed ON the people.In states like New York it was not put to any vote. It was simply imposed by the legislature.

I do not hold out much hope that the scotus will support the states whose ammendments have been overturned...but I pray they read the plain words of the constitution. And recall the limits on their power.
