“The court now holds that same-sex couples may exercise the fundamental right to marry. No longer may this liberty be denied to them,” Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion. He was joined in the opinion by the court’s liberal justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen G. Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

All four of the court’s most conservative members — Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. — dissented and each wrote separate opinions.

Apparently TotalBiscuit is a homosexual.

To be fair that's a silly comment. There are many ways some people would be made happy by changing laws, but that doesn't necessarily mean laws should be changed. The reason why the supreme court ruled the way they did was not to make gays happy.

All sexual promiscuity has the potential to lead to medical problems.
Sexual promiscuity is not only an issue for male homosexuals.
Anal sex is not limited to homosexual males.
Neither are the mouth or hands or feet or any other body parts people use during intercourse 'designed' for sex. Point is irrelevant.
Again STIs aren't solely a problem for homosexuals or a problem from anal sex.

But aside from all that. What is your point? Or your attempted point?~

Please stop talking out of your ass (pun intended). STD transmission can be curbed with proper contraception (i.e., wear a condom), and I'm fairly certain HIV transmission is more likely with blacks than homosexuals (and that lesbians have a pretty low transmission rate). There's a ton of random factoids you can throw down, but the fact of the matter is that none of these have anything to do with allowing gays to marry.

Besides, if you want gays to stop having sex, maybe they *should* get married... I'm sure plenty of married couples will tell you that that killed their libido lol.

Yeah I had a laugh at the thought that allowing marriage would translate to more sex. Because they totally need that.

I do not recall a time when the institutions of marriage and the family have faced such peril, or when the forces arrayed against them were more formidable or determined. Barring a miracle, the family that has existed since antiquity will likely crumble, presaging the fall of Western civilization itself. This is a time for concerted prayer, divine wisdom and greater courage than we have ever been called upon to exercise.

For more than 50 years, the homosexual activist movement has sought to implement a master plan that has had as its centerpiece the destruction or redesign of the family. Many of these objectives have largely been realized, including widespread support of the gay lifestyle, discrediting of Scriptures that condemn homosexuality or sexual immorality, muzzling of the clergy and Christian media, inclusion of gays and lesbians in all branches of the military, granting of special privileges and rights in the law, overturning laws prohibiting pedophilia, indoctrinating children and future generations through public education, and securing all the legal benefits of marriage for any two or more people who claim to have homosexual tendencies. By promoting what is known as LGBT, we must remember that the “B” stands for bisexuality. That would include acceptance of sexual relations between both genders in groups and among every category of sexual expression outside the bonds of marriage. Now the proponents of LGBT seek to legalize gay and lesbian marriage, which could mean anything or nothing in a few years.

Admittedly, there have been various societies in history where homosexuality has flourished, including the biblical cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, in ancient Greece and in the Roman Empire. None of these civilizations survived. Furthermore, even where sexual perversion was tolerated or flourished, the institution of marriage continued to be honored in law and custom. Only in the last few years has what is called “gay marriage” been given equal status with biblical male-female unions. In fact, to date only 18 countries in the world recognize the legitimacy of same-sex marriage. America appears on the verge of becoming No. 19. God help us if we throw the divine plan for humankind on the ash heap of history.

Let’s get to the bottom line. If the U.S. Supreme Court redefines marriage to include same-sex unions, I guarantee you that it will not be the end of the matter. An avalanche of court cases will be filed on related issues that can’t even be imagined today. Here are a few that we can foresee:

1. Religious liberty will be assaulted from every side. You can be certain that conservative churches will be dragged into court by the hundreds. Their leaders will be required to hire people who don’t share the beliefs of their denominations and constituents. Pastors may have to officiate at same-sex marriages, and they could be prohibited from preaching certain passages of Scripture. Those who refuse to comply will not only be threatened legally, but many will be protested and picketed by activists. Perhaps this is a worst-case scenario, but maybe not. Prison is also a possibility.

2. Christian businesses and ministries will be made to dance to the government’s tune. We’ve all seen examples of photographers, bakeries and florists being required to serve at gay weddings, on penalty of closure or bankruptcy. This kind of legal oppression is coming all across the nation.

3. Christian colleges may be unable to teach scriptural views of marriage. Any nonprofit Christian organization that opposes same-sex unions, including our own, will likely lose its tax-exempt status. Many will be forced to close their doors.

This is kinda funny. There are several smart ways to attack this ruling/homosexual marriages but their oponents use arguments that are in no way suited to work on people already not convinced against them. The oponents of same sex marriages come off either as "mentally handicaped bigot" or "hiding behind pseudoscience hater". I dont mean to offend anyone but it certainly looks like hatred (or unsecurity or however You want to call it) is clouding Your judgment. You wont convince anyone that way.

I cant wait for a gay couple that wants to be married in the crystal cathedral. The church will say no because of their religious doctrine, and the gigantic lawsuit that occurs. This ruling is the beginning of something else.
Please help me get in contact with the Pats organization because I'd love to personally deflate Tom's balls.

Did that issue ever go to court over interracial marriage? I can't seem to fine a lawsuit that is completely on point. Mostly ones that revolve around religious schools discriminating against interracial couples.

This is a pop radio talking point, nothing more. Unless there's a change in actual legislation (unlikely given the separation of church and state), I'm pretty sure a church can turn down a wedding request from anyone for any reason they want.

You can have the right to get married without that implying a right to get married in a specific place officiated by a specific person.

Also getting married somewhere that doesn't want to marry you would be pretty insanely spiteful but that's just my thoughts.

I've seen this argument before from opponents of homosexuality, and I've never understood it. Why are conservatives all across the country suddenly showing concern for the rectums and overall health of gay men in this country? I'm pretty sure, if they are participating in homosexual sex, gay men are familiar with the process and know what risks it entails. I don't see anyone in this camp making similar efforts to protect smokers from destroying their lungs with their "unnatural ways" or alcoholics from destroying their livers. People are allowed to do unhealthy things in the name of freedom, that's what we're all about isn't it?

So admit it, you don't actually give a shit about the health of homosexual men, you are just looking for another excuse to argue that it is immoral, unnatural, or disgusting. And that's pretty pathetic.
