District court in Massachusetts rules DOMA, the federal law which defines marriage as between a man and a woman, is unconstitutional. Next up: Circuit Court appeal.
This will be interesting.

The day it gets overturned in the SC is the day the Church stops marriages in the temples. We'll be moving to the European model - get married at town hall, get sealed in the temple...Comment

The gay agenda is..........force church's to conduct gay marriages or lose their tax-exempt status. That is their payback. Much like the AA community when OJ was acquitted. It's all payback! Wonder when the crackers in the US payback.Originally posted by BlueHair View Post

Speaking of state's rights. They have the right to create sanctuary cities that are clearly against Federal illegal immigration laws but you can't enforce state laws that mirror what the federal laws are (AZ). I'm really getting confused by states vs. federal rights these days.

Professor Geoffrey Stone, of The University of Chicago Law School, and his take on DOMA:
Note that Mormons are entitled to equal protection, too. Thanks, Professor Stone!τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσινComment

Maybe so. But it would sure be nice for parents, grandparents and children to see their siblings get married. Try explaining to your grandparent why they are not welcome or invited to see you get married.Originally posted by Hallelujah View PostComment

So the church is more worried about money than family? Interesting. Maybe they should just charge admission to cover the taxes.Originally posted by Hallelujah View PostThe gay agenda is..........force church's to conduct gay marriages or lose their tax-exempt status.

I missed the logical connection. Actually, the gay community is more interested in sticking it to the churches than their two mother, two father families.
BTW......can you show me any study that shows that children are better off in a gay marriage than a hetero marriage? I keep searching but can't find one.
Oh wait, it's not about the children it's about the gay couple. Sorry, I forgot.Comment
