SCOTUS should NOT be hearing this gay marriage case because marriage is not an enumerated power delegated to them by the Constitution. So it is up to the states to assert adhesion to the Rule of Law of the Constitution and declare they reject unconstitutional federal acts and decisions like hearing and deciding regarding gay marriage (regardless of their ruling - it is not in their constitutional scope of power to hear the case AT ALL (other than to repeal lower federal court decisions and send the case back to the state where it originated)).

“There’s not much question which way the decision will go: same-sex couples are going to prevail. The logic is plain:”

Absolutely. Marriage is a religious institution.
