(2005-02-05) -- A day after ruling that New York City must allow homosexual marriages, a state judge today declared traditional heterosexual marriage unconstitutional.
"Homosexual marriage rests on the bedrock of judicial opinion," wrote Justice Doris Ling-Cohan, "But heterosexual marriage finds justification in little more than religious myth, antiquated tradition and a few unconstitutional state and local laws. These are all hollow arguments when compared with the firm foundation provided by a growing number of judges."
In a 57-page ruling, Judge Ling-Cohan ordered the state of New York to "cease and desist issuing marriage licenses to counter-sex (man-woman) couples and to dissolve of all existing counter-sex marriages."
Barring an appeal, the ban takes effect in 30 days.

This doesn't surprise me. I went to school with Judge Ling-Cohan ... maiden name was Ding A. Ling.

Speak for yourself, your honor, the Lings and the Cohans may be throwing bastards, and there certainly seems to be evidence of that, but Naughtius' folks were Man and Wife.

I hope these counter-sex couples do not try to seek refuge in Canada.
We were the first enlightened nation to stop this perverted lifestyle.
Man and woman...now that's just gross. What next?

A married friend of mine said he didn't see the fuss about same sex marriages. He said he's been getting the same sex the past 10 years.
