Gay twin brothers can now marry.

They said they’d never try to force the Church to marry gays...waiting for that to change.

Homosexuality and similar sins are actually hate crimes against God. It is a mockery of God’s gift of life and his natural design.

This is why Christians are hated by these people, they feel it in their hearts that what they are doing is wrong and don’t want to be reminded of their guilt. They just want to do what they want without guilt.

Will churches be forced to marry gays?

[Huskrrrr]

Persecution of Pastors, Priests, etc. to follow soon.

“May God have mercy on our wicked nation.”

The SCOTUS has ruled this week that “States” no longer means States, but “State”.

They have determined that “Marriage” no longer exists.

The Constitution is dead, folks.

[dila813]

They said they would never force others to recognize their unions either as marriage. Here we are.

You are in my prayers. May God grant you grace, strength and power.

"If you are among the many Americans--of whatever sexual orientation--who favor expanding same-sex marriage, by all means celebrate today's decision. Celebrate the achievement of a desired goal. Celebrate the opportunity for a new expression of commitment to a partner. Celebrate the availability of new benefits. But do not Celebrate the Constitution. It had nothing to do with it."

- Chief Justice Roberts

via SCOTUSblog:

The Chief Justice has the principal dissent, which is 31 pages long. Toward the end of it, he says, "If you are among the many Americans--of whatever sexual orientation--who favor expanding same-sex marriage, by all means celebrate today's decision. Celebrate the achievement of a desired goal. Celebrate the opportunity for a new expression of commitment to a partner. Celebrate the availability of new benefits. But do not Celebrate the Constitution. It had nothing to do with it."

"It is now clear that the challenged laws burden the liberty of same-sex couples, and it must be further acknowledged that they abridge central precepts of equality . . . Especially against a long history of disapproval of their relationships, this denial to same-sex couples of the right to marry works a grave and continuing harm. The imposition of this disability on gays and lesbians serves to disrespect and subordinate them. And the Equal Protection Clause, like the Due Process Clause, prohibits this unjustified infringement of the fundamental right to marry."

This ruling provides no ability to prevent polygamous, incestuous, group, and beastial marriages in the future. The family no longer exists in law in this country.

I was advised not to use husband and wife in @1993 when I was an elected official...so...yes...the fascists who are rewriting history and our language will attempt that

May God have mercy on our wicked nation.

Amen! God have mercy.

“Homofascist Gay Gestapo will take away OUR marriages next”

Soon, it will be a CRIME to be openly Christian in America.

What they need to do is like Italy....everyone gets a Justice of the Peace ceremony and then it you want the church wedding it is the next day. It works well and ensures that churches don’t have to perform gay marriages which is what is going to happen very soon if we don’t do something like what Italy does.

[stevie_d_64]

Yeah, but everyone outside the Supreme court waiting for this monumental decision is so happy...

And gay...

I’m done with the Federal GOVERMENT telling the states what they can and cannot do...

I wonder if that means, I’m out???

Isn’t that a turn on a turn of words...

[CatherineofAragon]

Well, many thanks to the Founding Fathers for going through hell to provide us with a country that we kept for a little while.

I'm sorry they suffered so much for this.

[fwdude]

Anyone think they will shut up now?

No, this just gave them a huge sledge hammer to begin their destruction.
