I'd figure I'd chime in on marriage rights apolitically speaking. I like laws. Laws are after moral predispositions of the population hypothetically but they aren't the set moral code for everyone. That's sharia law. As a female, I just don't want to live like that. I do like that our laws where gay rights are concerned are more congruent. When homosexuals were granted their civil rights decades ago they should have received them all but I guess such things take time. For example, Brown v Board of Topeka abolished segregation in schools in 1950. Schools in my state were segregated till the 80s

Congress is charged with writing laws and the president either signs it or vetoes it. If there is a challenge to a law the supreme court rules on the constitutionality of the law. The constitution does not allow the supreme court or the president to write law as they see fit. That is what has become lost in this debate. For years we have had supreme court rulings and presidential executive orders taking the place of congress. Until the congress grows a pair ... it's never going to change.

Congress already gave homosexuals civil rights. The states have been selective about defining life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. The Supreme Court expanded their definition. They clarified the meaning of the law, they didn't make a new law. As a spiritual person it does not appear to reflect the innate order of things but what good will suppression yield
