On Monday, the first homosexual couples will be officially and legally married, and no one in that state can stop them thanks to the Supreme Court’s decision to refuse to block the marriages<\/a>.
\nThe Court did not issue a comment, which in laymens’ terms means that they take no position on the case either way. The matter will be taken up by the Court of Appeals in June. Scalia did gripe, but I’d be surprised if he didn’t.
\nShould the Ct. of Appeals even grant a stay in the near future this is at least some kind of progress though it does or may place the court in a situation where it will have to decide whether marriage is a fundamental right between a man and a woman, or is it gender neutral. Either way, there’s a fight in the federal system now, and I can only hope that our judges are sensible enough to look past their religious biases and can recognize that these are human beings that we’re dealing with. People who are entitled to the same protections as heterosexual couples.
\nPardon me, but I just don’t get the whole ‘it’s against god, against nature’ crap. If judges take issue with this, then they have no business being on the bench appointed or otherwise. Granted I have no control over this but that’s just my two cents. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
