The supreme court forced it on California..and they were the first state to recognize it. Only the anti gay ? religious freaks were against it. Its a legal issue, not a moral one.Even California said no to gay marriageWell the governments give us rights and takes them away.Well it is a funny thing. When you ask a godless Leftist if we have rights that empower the state to "help" people, they will spout off a bunch of rights, such as the right to health care, the right to abortions, the right to vote, etc.God given rights. Do you really have any?
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
When a right is given to us by governments, they assume and have a duty to ensure that they are never taken from us. If governments do not accept and do this enforcement duty, then citizens have a corrupted government.
If a right is given to a soul, by god, he would have a duty to ensure that they are never taken from us. The fact that they often are, indicates that he is shirking his duty.
To me, rights are like laws, completely useless and worthless unless they can be enforced by a given power when they are breached.
Do you have any real god given rights, or are god given rights just a feel-good lie that we tell ourselves we have so as to ignore that we have none?

However, if you try to mention rights of the individual that limit government power they will say that such rights don't really exist.
In short, they want their cake and eat it too.
And the republicans think they have a right to own a gun or rifle (without background checks) and do mass shootings, and the republicans think they have a right who can get married, and who gets healthcare or not.
See how that works.
But you already knew that
So see how you republicans like to act, like you are gods and gay marriage is not forced on anyone.
Its a legal issue, not a moral one.
If law is moral, then the issue is a moral one.
It can be said that law is not as moral as it will be, but we cannot say that it does not hold any morality.
Given that secular law is bringing more peace and law minding than religions, I would give it high marks for morality.
Thank God for laïcité.

Abortion and the death penalty is barbaric, mans laws change like the wind
Please opine on this in terms of where the law must eventually go.
I will put my money on the notion that it is a fact that good people will inevitably demand and make good law.

Huh? Even the ex govenors of Illinois a republican suspended the death penalty, when will the left wake up on abortion?
Who suspended the death penalty?
What is it about men and their obsession with controlling women's health?
Ex govenor Ryan he ended up in prison.
