February 8, 201214 yr I'm no lawyer so I don't even want to begin debating the legalities in play here, but I would like to make a point about the 9th Circuit Court: "In the last (SCOTUS) session (now two sessions ago I believe), 27 percent of its rulings were affirmed, while 60 percent were reversed." So should this case make its way to the Supreme Court, it basically has a 2/3's chance of being overturned. We shall see.

This is the same type of repeating, hot topic that the Court needs to hear. This goes beyond just an Equal Rights Violation, this has huge 10th Amendment implications as well, as has been stated.
February 8, 201214 yr This has absolutely nothing to do with God though.Yep, you are so right. Kinda what I said but a different tone.
February 8, 201214 yr Yep, you are so right. Kinda what I said but a different tone.I'm not sure I follow.
February 8, 201214 yr God doesn't change, man does. Married just doesn't fit with Same Sex. Use something else. Will not see the Kingdom of heaven. God said. Give to Cesar what is Cesar's and give to God what is God. Marriage as a legal union is what is at issue here. Marriage as a religious sacrament is for the church. Looking at it from a purely legal standpoint, it is incredibly prejudiced the stand that Congress has made. As a Catholic, I have no problem w/ never allowing gay marriage ceremonies.
February 8, 201214 yr This has absolutely nothing to do with God though. Don't tell Alabama Larry that.
February 8, 201214 yr I'm not sure I follow." It has nothing to do with GOD" You wrote. And I said God doesn't change Man does, because man has nothing to with God in this issue. If man is for it. God gave Man a helper to share his life. The helper was not another man. God made this Marriage this way, so man comes along and tries to do something different and GOD destroyes man because of the Sin, did GOD change? I would think GOD is disappointed in the Free will choice of Man. We cannot as Humans pick and Choose Bible verses or the nature of Man. If we all become Gay, we die out. I can give verses if anyone wants to see them, but this thread is not requiring them unless someone wants to see.

So from a legal view, how do you stand on the issue? Or are you not capable of separating the two?

February 8, 201214 yr Do you take everything in the Bible literally? I'm sure he eats ham and shellfish, so I'd say the answer is no.
February 8, 201214 yr It's a pretty pathetic time for our country when our government can't realize that banning gay marriage screams of discrimination and promotion of inequality.
February 8, 201214 yr I'm sure he eats ham and shellfish, so I'd say the answer is no.I would not be willing to make that assumption. :lol: :lol:
February 8, 201214 yr AL, This is not a religious issue though. This is a legal issue. So from a legal view, how do you stand on the issue? Or are you not capable of separating the two? Where do laws come from?
