This is a states rights issue and the SCOTUS should have ruled it that way.
Isaiah 5:20 applies.
When time comes to an end, this sin will not be applauded or celebrated.
See: Genesis 19.

The SCOTUS is just as corrupt as the rest of the Federal Government, maybe more so.
Well!Congress funds the Judiciary.Why don’t they send the Chief Justice a message by cutting his budget?
This crap has to stop somewhere.
Less talk(complaining)and more action would be beneficial to get the courts attention.
The Senate, kiddies, the Senate being elected since the 17th Amendment rather than handled the way the Constitution originally intended is the root of all these bad judges and the decisions that flow from them. Far more so than the President.
Enjoy the fruits of early twentieth century progressives and their victory over the Constitution.
Did Cruz call for impeachment?
Sometimes I think Ted Cruz is the only Republican leader speaking out ... And given what he says, I like it. I will vote Republican because I think it is the only responsible vote. I want to vote for Ted Cruz.
Cruz tells it like it is. The court are TRAITORS!
The US Constitution: 14th Amendment
Fourteenth Amendment to the US Constitution - Rights Guaranteed Privileges and Immunities of Citizenship, Due Process and Equal Protection
AMENDMENT XIV of the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION
Passed by Congress June 13, 1866. Ratified July 9, 1868.
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Section 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
If a state wants to rule that a relationship between five men, three women, two dogs and fifteen parakeets constitutes a "marriage," then so be it. This is where the Court's refusal to take these cases is consistent with their prior DOMA ruling. There is simply no provision of the U.S. Constitution that establishes a Federal role in marriage law.
P.S. This is why even "originalist" justices like Scalia and Thomas refused to take the case.
Congress has abdicated its duty
Well, if they don’t follow God’s laws, they will probably go the hell. Just that simple.
BTTT

One of the saddest things about this outcome is that those 30+ states who VOTED to ban same sex marriage had their votes overturned by one man. This man will reap God’s judgment in a way he’ll always regret. I would NOT want to be him.
“The fact that the Supreme Court Justices, without providing any explanation whatsoever, have permitted lower courts to strike down so many state marriage laws is astonishing.”
Then he ought to become Dictator once elected and end this sham once and for all.
Sometimes that's what it takes to fix a Republic.
The fact that he has the stones to speak out with such coherence against this MONSTROUS act by the UNELECTED CLOWNS on the SCOTUS is very encouraging.
