The constitution does not give the Federal gov’t. authority to legislate any kind of social behavior. That is a matter for state legislatures entierly.

Frankly, I’d rather leave it that way than say something like: Ok Liberals, you’ve had your fun stomping all over the constitution, now we’re going to do it our way.

I see the problem as not being a lack of morals in Washington, but the very fact that it believes it can impose whatever kind of morals or lack thereof on society at will.

Mine was not an argument against Federalism, but an argument against any level of government countenancing very obvious wickedness.

The sodomites who are allowed to “marry” in one state or another can be counted on to push their agenda by (1) trying to adopt the children they can’t produce, and then (2) moving to states that do not sanction sodomite “marriage” to create situations that will force the courts to (unconstitutionally) legislate in their favor for benefits and so forth.

The sodomites are going to keep pressing until there is no federalism. And they know exactly what they’re doing.
