Remedy, please don't take this as a personal attack, I am attacking the absolutly assinine statement from the court you quoted...
Bowers v. Hardwick, 478 US 186 (1986) The Constitution does not confer a fundamental right upon homosexuals to engage in sodomy.
The above quote continues to show the absolute ignorance of our judiciary and most Citizens... The Constitution does not confer rights to anyone or anything except to the State or Federal government. These entities don't exist without the Constitution (though they are operating as if there is none right now, but that's a different conversation).
Even still, I guess I am changing the subject. To be clear again...Sodomy is wrong, evil, against God, etc.... and the family and the church need to get back to basics...but...
You have just as much right "in reference to the Constitution" to stick your tounge on an electric socket, (excuse the crudity, but I'm trying to get a point across) to put your nuts in a vise, or to perform the (disturbing)act of sodomy.
They are all stupid and wrong, but if I as an individual don't have the "jurisdiction" to enter your property and stop you from doing these things, I can not (in the form of a "government") confer that right to others...

- Unalienable Rights originate from God.
- Some claim that they originate from the STATE.
The Constitution secures rights confered by God. Therefore, WHITE, J., statement that the Constitution does not confer a fundamental right upon homosexuals to engage in sodomy is correct and the homosexuals & Court of Appeals, incorrect."
After being charged with violating the Georgia statute criminalizing sodomy by committing that act with another adult male in the bedroom of his home, respondent Hardwick (respondent) brought suit in Federal District Court, challenging the constitutionality of the statute insofar as it criminalized consensual sodomy. The court granted the defendants' motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. The Court of Appeals reversed and remanded, holding that the Georgia statute violated respondent's fundamental rights."
Is Same-Sex Marriage Good for the Nation? The only source for unalienable rights in all human history is the Creator, the God of the Bible.
