Supreme Court rules in favor of gay marriage

"Man" and "woman" aren't gender-specific terms?

 

No one was ever denied a right. What they were denied in the past was the ability to ignore a definition. Today's ruling involved five sub-moronic people doing logic gymnastics and deciding that ignoring a definition is a constitutional right because they "feel" it should be. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

Sure, but marriage hasn't been legally defined as being by a man and a woman. Why else were the anti-gay marriage supporters constantly pushing for state laws and a Constitutional amendment seeking to define marriage as between a man and a woman if it had already been legally defined as such?

 

No, they were denied equality under the law. To argue anything different is to lie.

Five Supreme Court justices are sub-moronic? That's funny.

 

Tony, why are you against gay marriage?

 

The five moronic justices line is especially laughable considering the "ask the nearest hippie" line in today's ruling and the "jiggery-pokery" line in yesterday's.

 

Except their were violated. Marriage isn't some abstract thing that only exists within a religious definition. There is a host of legal implications that come with it, including medical decisions, end of life choices, inheritances and more. By strictly adhering to a Christian definition of marriage, the State was denying people basic rights enjoyed under the law.

 

According to a law being rammed through by the teahadists in the Michigan legislature, all marriages will have to be performed by clergy.

How were "their" violated? Marriage is between a man and a woman and any man could still marry any woman and any woman still could marry a man. That they wouldn't choose to do so isn't society's fault or problem.

 

So atheists and agnostics can't get married but if a church signs off on a same-sex wedding, no problem.

 

That is your definition of marriage, not everybody's. Hate to break it to you, but you don't get to push your faith on others in this country.

 

So who does? It appears you've decided others can push their faith or lack of faith on others. You guys are still celebrating the bakers and florists and photographers being put out of business for not participating in gay weddings.
