Alabamian, I find Roy Moore to be a repulsive embarrassment and an ugly example of the ol' boy politics of the state. The sooner he is off the bench, the better of we'll all be for it.

A state Supreme Court is under the authority of the federal Supreme Court. They have to abide by the federal Supreme Court, it's in the constitution. By the way move down to Bama and take your intolerance with you.

>>By the way move down to Bama and take your intolerance with you<<
So, let me get this straight.....
* If someone disagrees with something you're OK with, he's intolerant.
* If you don't like his disagreement, with your tolerance, you're not intolerant, he is.
* If he disagrees with your intolerance of his opinion, he's still intolerant.
So, "intolerance" can only be used as a one-way street.
Is that about right?
If so, there's a name for it.

We must have two very different definitions of the word "most." In reality, the majority of Americans support same-sex marriage rights. A little Googling will pull up plenty of polling data on the issue.

Not the folks I know. I don't give a #### what you call it, but I've seen to many partners weep over their dying loved ones in the ICU to judge any heterosexual relationship to be superior to love that two people of the same gender share based on gender alone.
Legal rights to health care next of kin, health insurance, etc shouldn't be subject to one groups bias or feelings of superiority.

You know, I'm a 60+ white Christian male heterosexual, married to the same woman for 20+ with two children. I can't for the life of me figure out how allowing gay people to get married does one thing to hurt me. Nobody says I have to divorce my wife and marry another guy, nobody says I have to attend their wedding(but if they were friends of mine, I might), nobody says they have to get married in my church(but my church is a "love thy neighbor type" and might allow it), nobody says my minister has to perform the service(though he probably would if they asked, he's pretty liberal), and I have my own business to attend to, too much to mind other people's business. Besides, they won't know how good they had it until they encounter divorce court and dividing up community property.

Agree . I just cannot for the life of me understand why something so innocuous, so every other day even bothers most people .
Seems to me that there are just a whole lotta folks around that need to be involved in other's business when it really is no peril to them in any way shape or form .
Never understood the " this threatens my way of life " decriers.

my stance on how it effects my life. In general, every day life, it doesnt. Me being a Christian and believing that God is the one that established marriage, that is what I have a problem with. It is the desecrating of something sacred. If you want to establish a civil union that grants a gay couple all the governmental rights as a married couple, then I am ok with that. But two homosexuals cannot be married in the eyes of God.

Tigerdug is right. Changing the name means nothing. Like it or not marriage ( or civil unions or whatever name you want to use) was instituted by God. Societies have decided to add some benefits to it like tax benefits etc. but to think we can change the definition is the height of arrogance. God set the rules and we change them at our own peril. Sin is the exaltation of self at the expense of God. There are always negative consequences for sin. Our children and their children will see this. Societies are only as strong as their families.

government gives to married couple... inheritance, tax breaks, etc. The government should not treat others different because of their lifestyle. And yes, I understand that the reasons those benefits were put in place were to encourage the family structure because society is typically based on family as the guy below you responded.
It is a means of separating what the government recognizes and what God recognizes. It is just like how the us is comprised of like 80% Christians. That is absurd. A Christian would have fruit in their lives so I would rather people call it what it is. Just because you were born in the US, especially the Bible belt, that does not make you a Christian. It doesnt change who you are by calling you something else, but it make a huge difference in the way the makeup of the Church looks.

Same here, walrus. I'm white, 59 years old, etc. But since you're not sticking your nose up other people's azzhole, and not being super-judgmental, and not jumping up and down and screaming about something that's none of your business... well, that just won't suit how some folks roll. People like the original poster just can't can't seem to grasp that the majority of this country doesn't agree with their opinion. Their spouse, family, close friends, neighbors, etc, may share their view... but that's just a couple dozen people out of 300 million. LOL

anything. What an a$$-backwards state. I'd be embarrassed if the South Carolina Supreme Court pulled a stunt like that. When SCOTUS decides, it is the law. The supreme law of the land. Alabama already has an awful image for civil rights... this is like pouring salt in the wound. What an embarrassment. Shame on the state of Alabama.

in fact, marriage is equal parts a legal and spiritual obligation. To the state, a marriage creates a contractual relationship with all the benefits of survivor's rights, intestate succession, tax status and other statutory duties that non-married couples would never enjoy.
With the abandonment of common law marriage, many homosexual couples lost the ability to have any "legal rights" of marriage associated with a marital union. This summer the supreme court ruled that homosexuals have a legal right to marriage. The supreme court did not say that they had a spiritual right to marry.
The Government absolutely has a right to regulate legal relationships... and it did so.

The topic should be a states issue, though. I am pro life as well, but the same is true for abortion (state issue, not federal). The federal government sticks it's snout in way too many state issues, and should butt out.

You are exactly right. The feds erode the rights of states to the point that someday a state will mean nothing more than a zipcode. Rights of states will be taken away and laws that the states oppose will be enforced federally. S.C. doesn't want legal marijuana.that is fine for now. But the day will come when some federal candidate will demand legalization of pot across the nation, then legalize gambling, then they will demand state income tax be even among states, etc..
And TigerKing will applaud.
Then, the UN and NATO and other country blocks will decide they have precedent over all countries, and will start trying to enforce world laws over the U.S. and other countries...a one world govt. WILL be formed.
And TigerKing will applaud because he prefers the European Socialist model anyways.

The government has no rights to intervene between man and God, Marriage is a vow between a couple and God. Who are you to say gay shouldn't marry? Did God commission us to enforce His Word or are our hands full with obedience?
The bottom line is bread and circus. These people get filthy rich entertaining the ignorant and narrow minded and we pay the bills. Let us put our hearts to something that matters or might make a difference.
