Almost every thing in life is debatable, but the Constitution errs on the side of equality, so I'm fairly certain it will eventually enforce the rights of gay marriage.
What you think and what the United States Constitution says are two entirely separate things. The Constitution wins out as the law of the land. The Constitution will ultimately be shown to be on the side of gay marriage, just as it was on the same side of the equality of the races and the equality of the sexes. You cannot afford rights to some and not afford them to all. That is unconstitutional.
Nobody is telling anybody how to live their lives. If you wanna be gay be gay. But why should society have to be overhauled to tend to their feelings of "equality".
Who's to say its a right? Why can't it be a privilege? The problem with equality & the minority is they only want it to apply when it's convenient.
Because we live in a republic that is governed by laws that protect the rights of minority's from being trampled by the majority.
That you would so readily dismiss a basic tenant of what makes America so great is both shocking and sad.
Why are there locks on the doors at the 7/11 down the street when it's open 24 hours a day?
Oh sorry, were we just asking irrelevant rhetorical questions here?
Not sure if this is ignorant or ironic or both. We live in a land where the minorities are getting more rights than the majority ever had. Affirmative action, Rooney rules, race baiting organizations, & much more. Everything is not a right. That is a fact. Changing laws & rules & overhauling society is doing nothing but trampling on the majority's RIGHTS. That is a fact but obviously that is ok.
:clapping:
This is the last bastion of a failed argument.
Isn't it time to put on your name tag and get to work?
