It’s a religious issue. Marriage is and always has been between a man and woman. It’s up to those religions as to how they want to handle things. It’s also a state’s rights issue. Some states recognize so called common-law marriages, and some do not.

From the government’s perspective, marriage is simply a contractual agreement, and can be performed by a Justice of the Peace.

The individuals of the same sex who want to be married, can write up their own contract to sign and live together if they want - or they can just shack up, they didn’t have to have a “marriage license or church ceremony etc.”.

They don’t need to have a ceremony before a minister or a judge to have a legally binding contract. Now we talk about Gay Marriage and Traditional Marriage - Next I guess they’ll be objecting to that, because they want the term to be Traditional Marriage.

It’s all about tearing down religion and strong families, in order for the radical left to achieve their goals. While the courts may speak regarding what is legal and not legal for those who are paid with taxpayer dollars, they have no right to infringe on religious liberty regarding marriage, and I don’t care what the Supremes have said - Just because they made a decision, doesn’t mean it was correct.

I heard him say months ago that he would pick SCOTUS justices that would overturn Roe v Wade AND same sex marriage.

It’s “law” NOW. He’s not going to make a big thing of it at this point.

And he is also specifically for religious freedom - freedom to live and speak our beliefs. That does away with much of the tyranny of the fag agenda right there.
