Supreme Court rules states must allow same-sex marriage

#58

Quote:What part of my post did you misconstrue? I'm well aware that in probably a hundred different cases already, gay couples have walked into Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran and Mormon churches (and probably plenty of other religions, too) and asked to be married there. I'm sure that most religious figures in the country are already consulting with their supervisors and lawyers about how to handle such requests, and I'm sure there are already activist lawyers filling in the names of churches on lawsuits that will be filed Monday morning. I don't think anyone's under the impression that today's ruling was the end of it. There were numerous battles that continued to be fought long after Brown v. Board of Education. Hell, Jacksonville itself hadn't actually desegregated schools until the late 80's/early 90's, and one could make a strong argument that schools are still drawn up to be segregated today down there. This is the beginning of a long process that will take years to sort itself out, and I should remind you that the Justices on this court are as likely to rule in favor of religious freedom (Hobby Lobby case) as they are to rule in favor of equal rights. I don't think that forcing Catholic priests to officiate weddings between same-sex individuals is as much of a slam dunk as you're making it out to be.
Never said it would be a slam dunk.  Only said that the issue was going to be forced by the activists.  You apparently agree with that point.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
