No matter what they say, marriage will still be between a man and a woman. Everything else is only an imitation.

Same as if the SCOTUS declared the tail of a dog to be a leg. It is still a tail.

It’s inevitable...our civil society is collapsing.

The US as the country I grew up in and the promise it offered is over. It doesn’t much matter.

Congress' Article III powers over Scotus ended in 1913.

The 17A opened the floodgate to anti-10A lawyers and marxists to the federal bench.

What's next? Will Scotus toss the law of gravity?

But hey, just keep voting.

Reaping the whirlwind, a phrase we will soon learn the meaning of.

Justice Kennedy

I'm in favor of dropping that word as a synonym for 'judge'.

It implies they work "justice". Seriously. Is there any justice in threatening the good order and discipline of the United States military? Is there any justice in threatening the safety and security of communities with physical, biological, social, and spiritual harm? Is there any justice in encouraging human beings to engage in a deadly behavior?

And, finally, is there any justice in declaring that parents are irrelevant, that religion is obsolete, and that emotions are a legitimate interest of the government?

Churches refusing Gay Marriages will lose their tax exempt status..inncluding exemption from PROPERTY TAXES

As a result Fewer churches will exist...and the buildings will be sold by the state...to MUSLIMES who will turn them into Mosques.

Prepare for the deluge.

Perfect storm of social mis-engineering. When groupthink narratives collide. We are at Hutu-Tutsi or Serb-Albanian levels of mass social hostility. Sometimes this occurs naturally, often it is whipped up, when some actor perceives an advantage, think Milosovich in Former Yugoslavia. Once the genie is out of the bottle the plan usually goes sideways and explodes in unanticipated directions. What follows can sometimes be Turks/Armenians or Nazis/Jews or Rwanda etc. Very dangerous. People who stoke this for a momentary gain are evil.

By my estimation of my church about 30% are actually believers. They will disperse into homes and the true church will be stronger for it.

We have to recall that the black-robed justices prepared the ground for the first Civil War with its Dred Scott decision. I’m not saying that recognizing gay marriage will cause a second civil war, but it would continue the long line of transgressions by the USSC that have robbed us of our God-given freedom, heritage and customs.

It needs to be made clear that these black robes will be made accountable for their decisions. It’s time to start talking about an American Nuremberg trial.

I would be shocked if they didn’t

the best we can hope for is they legalize “civil unions” but define marriage to exclude sodomites.
