Drudge: Prop 8 decision by 9th Circus is remanded...
Romans 1
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, 21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality,[c] wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving,[d] unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
May God forgive us. I oppose same-sex marriage.
Yet another episode of “As Civilization Crumbles”, and another triumph for evil.
Federal money determines morality.

Here's the live discussion threadm suitable for venting. This is a perfect example that with a rotten to the stinking core judiciary (on every level), there is no recourse. No peaceable one. If anyone has any good ideas for a peaceable recourse, let me know.
A very dark day. Words cannot express the depth of my disgust and loathing for Roberts. I can only hope now for something (whatever it/they might be) that will bring this monstrous evil to an end.
If anyone wants on/off any of my pinglists, freepmail ME, not wagglebee; he hasn't been around for a while.
The Supreme Court strikes down DOMA on the basis that it interferes with the state’s ability to define marriage. So my question is, can we take back abortion based on this reasoning? I think it is worth considering.
On the lack of standing decision, effectively allowing the Ninth Circuit decision to stand, which overturned California’s Proposition 8:

HOLLINGSWORTH ET AL. v. PERRY ET AL.
On the overturn of the federal DOMA Defense of Marriage Act, via the case of a female couple in New York state, legally married under New York law.

UNITED STATES v. WINDSOR, EXECUTOR OF THE ESTATE OF SPYER, ET AL.
I blame the Democrats. They and their followers are the demonic force behind all this.

If the decision is based (incorrectly) on equal protection grounds, this open civil marriage contracts up to parties of hundreds and thousands and tens of thousands entering into civil marriage contracts for business and financial purposes.
If I could get my family members to go along with me, I would readily marry my children so that they would receive the advantages coming under law by marriage. If businesses (such as insurance companies) are required by law to provide goods and services to married partnerships, I’d exploit the court decision to pull these from these private third parties (who would not be a party to my contract if it were not the special exception of civil marriage).
If we received some tax advantage, or other benefits of marriage provided by state and local government, I’d easily marry my children.
But this of course extends outside the family. Civic marriage is now a business opportunity. I’ll buy health insurance coverage, and this coverage will now extend to the 20 million persons who have paid me a small fee to join my marriage contract, and thereby receive coverage.

Some here say that the state has no interest in marriage. They say it is exclusively a religious matter. I disagree. Both the church and state have strong interests in marriage, even if their motivations are varied. The state and civic society have a STRONG need of the civic marriage institution, but this institution makes sense ONLY if marriage is restricted to adult male and female couples, of dissimilar genetics, with the concomitant demand that sexual activity be confined to marriage, that divorce be allowed only under exceptional circumstances, that the man protect and nurture and provide for the woman, that the property rights of the woman be protected by law, that the woman nurture the man and raise children as provided by God and Providence, and that the couple love and nurture and provide for the children as provided by God and Providence.
The decision FORCES gay “marriage” upon America! It’s gonna be a Homo Hoedown in San Francisco tonight!
