Im convinced youve lost your ever loving fucking mind.EMILYNGHIEM SAID:
“Because people don't agree, that's why you leave it to the people and quit trying to impose one way through the state.”
Nonsense.
The United States is a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy, where citizens of the Republic are subject solely to the rule of law, not men, as men are in capable of ruling justly – measures intended to deny same-sex couples access to marriage law they're eligible to participate in are proof of that.
Moreover, one's civil rights are not subject to majority rule, one does not forfeit his rights merely as a consequence of his state of residence, as the people have no authority to decide who will or will not have his civil rights.
And when the state acts in a manner intended to deny citizens their civil rights in violation of the Constitution, those adversely effected have the right to file suit in Federal court and seek relief; indeed, had the states simply followed the Constitution, and allowed same-sex couples access to marriage law in accordance with the 14th Amendment, this would never had manifested into a controversy in the first place.
People don't agree on Protestant or Catholic BELIEFS.
People don't agree on following Hindu, Muslim or Buddhist BELIEFS.
these are not areas that federal govt has jurisdiction to decide through representative democracy.
There is a limit on govt authority, and BELIEFS is one area that it cannot establish without consent of people.
We AGREE to let people exercise their Buddhist, Christian or other beliefs in private.
Why can't we agree to let people exercise their marriage beliefs in private, or health
care beliefs, if we KNOW that we have conflicting beliefs just like Muslims and Hindus?
Why this need to force the Hindu beliefs in favor over the Muslims with different beliefs?
That's what is happening with forcing right to health care but not allowing right to life
to establish their beliefs through federal gov they believe will save lives, too!
If we don't agree on beliefs, why can't we agree to leave them to private choices
as we do with other religious beliefs we don't agree on either?
Everything you say now is some unfound illogical conservative curmudgeon bullshit.
If the state is going to recognize marriages, it should be all of them. The pseudo intellectual reasoning to have the state discriminate against a class of ppl because of who they love is vile and disturbing.
You have now disgusted me and ive lost all respect. Pz.
