So you did come out for homosexualizing the military, a left position, a libertarian position.

You are wrong about government and marriage, the people who founded this nation didn’t see it that way, and they did not want the Muslims, and later Mormons, dictating marriage law.

Of course, if you don’t care about legal marriage you didn’t have to marry legally, in fact, you still don’t, legal marriage is only for those who care about the government accepting their marriage, people like Jefferson and Washington.

Congress of course has been making laws regarding marriage since 1780, constitutionally I imagine, at least by the standards of 1780 and 1784, 1798, etc.

You seem to be suffering from a serious comprehension problem. I certaimly did not advocate for homosexualizing the military.

Beyond that, you do seem to be making my point rather well. congress has been making laws regarding marriage since 1780, and they STILL don’t have it straight.

Nice job of avoiding the main point though. While your positions on abortion and homos and whatnot may be absolutely correct; what, under your preferred set of rules, stops the leftists in your all- powerful government from deciding at some point that homosexuality is the PREFERRED situation? Congress could just pass another law, right? Constitutional limits on government power is the only answer.
