Supreme Court rules for gay marriage
Reuters ^ | 6/26/2015 | Staff

Posted on 06/26/2015 7:40:16 AM PDT by HomerBohn

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution provides same-sex couples the right to marry in a historic triumph for gay rights.

-snip-

Justice Anthony Kennedy, writing on behalf of the court, said that the hope of gay people intending to marry "is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization's oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right."

If prayer were the answer, the first roberts would not have been made. There were prayer requests and prayer vigils and actual prayers that apparently were not answered.

WATCH AND SEE AID’S BECOME AN EPIDEMIC ACROSS AMERICA

They can't declare war on nature and natures God and expect to win. AIDs was their warning. The next plague will be bigger, stronger, faster, and deadlier. In fact, I believe this ruling has given nature the go ahead.

Watch for it. Buy your popcorn now.

Kennedy addressed that subject in the opinion. He said religious leaders would not be forced to perform same-sex ceremonies because they have a 1A right to religious objection. He did not address bakers & florists, etc.

Okay...here we go.

We all know what happened after the Romans conquered the Carthaginians (and what they were known for)...Now, we get to relive history because we learned nothing from it other than to repeat the mistakes of the past. We get to party like it’s 410 AD and 455 AD all over again. Celebrate vice and punish virtue...that’s great...way to go. Now it’s just a matter of time.

Well done SCOTUS...

The Supreme Court can no more repeal the laws of nature and God on marriage than it can the law of gravity.

Americans had better awaken from their narcotic-induced sleep and do something significant about this central socialist government and it’s convoluted system of courts.

Situations where the letter of the law does not matter:

- If you are black, hispanic or some other racial minority
- If you are female (and a feminist)
- If you are gay homosexual
- If you believe in global warming
- If you have enough money to buy power/decisions in your favor

HOMOSEXUAL, because there's nothing GAY about it.

I am nauseous, so am not thinking too straight today.

Have faith. Nature has a way of cleansing itself. That's the way it was designed.

Oh, they were answered, but the answer was "no" or "not yet".

This issue will be back in the court. Lets se what this POS Kennedy has to say then.

Bakers and Florists whom object should become ordained ministers, maybe that is a work around. They can advertise they are a Full service Bakery lol. I’m only halfway kidding.

At first I was bummed, but now I understand....

"10 And he said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near. 11"Let the one who does wrong, still do wrong; and the one who is filthy, still be filthy; and let the one who is righteous, still practice righteousness; and the one who is holy, still keep himself holy." 12"Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done.…

Soooooo...as long as we keep ours and ourselves clean, we're good. Just shun the homos as much as possible so you don't get defiled by them.

The bigger issue is that donations will no longer be tax deductible. This is HUGE.

Filthy mud humpers..The fact that faggots merit any kind of political discussion in this country is almost as bad as the ruling itself.

this is not about government making god. This is about government being god.

So true, and it won't be long before they start finding ways to eliminate any kind of threats to their golden calf.

If anyone here has battled any liberals/progressives, in recent times, and see how vile their posts are, they are capable of just about anything to protect this arrogance.

Imagine what NYC is going to be like when the homeless shelters and soup kitchens have to shut down. They're all run by Christians.
The poor will no longer have their thrift stores or food pantries, because they're Christian.

Will the homos provide all these things for the poor and needy from now on?

Sleepy Americans, awakening from their naps had somehow convinced themselves this day would never come.

Some of us might have expected a couple more years before it happened, but many evangelicals deluded themselves into thinking it would just never happen.

What to do? What to do?

Get behind a third party that will sap votes from our single party system and cleanse our nation of ALL the evil therein.

This country is doomed, officially, it’s doomed. Black robed tyrants have now sealed God’s judgment upon us. There is no other way to look at it.
