This bill legalizes perversion and immorality. I call this bill the “Disrespect for Marriage Act.”

Is this constitutional?

It is just a codification of Obergefell relative to recognition of marriages performed legally in other states. So, yes.

They will use this law to go after all religious faiths that don't recognize gay marriage.

What fantasy land are you living in? Just because you say it doesn’t make it reality. There are gay people married all over the United States. So just deal with it I guess?


Then what was the purpose of this law?

LOL

Within 10 years you'll be fully on board with the idea that people who disagree with homosexuality have no place in our society and should be pushed to its margins, regardless of their tolerance/civility toward it.

Would you like to try to give us a definition of marriage?

Can someone point me to the language in the bill that allows this, or that is causing this concern?

Do you want to show me in the law what allowed SCOTUS to revoke John Brown University’s tax exempt status?

This is what all this crap boils down to. You can literally trace all the negative of what's going on in our nation to the attack on Christianity. And no not the watered down crap. The teachings and life/resurrection of Jesus Christ. Its plain as day but people don't see it, refuse to see it, or out right are for it.

Downvote away.

A marriage is between a man and a woman.

America adopting a perverted broadening of that definition, whether legally or culturally, only delegitimizes America itself. Just like so many in this pathetic remnant of a country are trying to redefine what constitutes a 'man' and 'woman.' Same cretinous crowd who think they can redefine 'marriage.'

America will be long dead, and 'marriage' will still be only a man and a woman.

No.

Asking what language in the bill is causing this concern is not an unreasonable question or request.

It use to be one man many women. Don't pretend it hasn't changed within your religion.

Ok. Then I think it is an odd concern.

If that isn't a provision in the legislation, it seems to me that if the government could revoke exemptions extra-statutorily for not supporting gay marriage then there is nothing stopping the government from doing it now.

Why is that a point made in opposition to the legislation if the legislation doesn't provide for it?

Dude marriage has a religious meaning for thousands of years. If you and your boyfriend want to commit to each other at a higher level, create a new thing instead of taking over something to support your recent ideals.

Geez you gays take things over things and get all pissy when people don't want your perversions mixed in. Take over the rainbow and now thinking you can take over the meaning of marriage.

Your sham of a wedding will never be equal no matter how many times you tell yourself it. Husband AND wife is the only natural combo. Take it up with Mother Nature if you have an issue with it.

Facts are facts.

How so, though? What gives this law more teeth than Obergefell already does?

Another poster said that there is nothing in this law regarding exemption status.

So what is causing the concern? Where is it coming from?

legislation on Thursday to protect same-sex and interracial marriage



HUH??

"Interracial marriage" has NEVER needed "protection". This is out-and-out bullsh*t propaganda.

The Mutants are using a make-believe threat to "inter-racial ANY thing to give cover for officially sanctioning (and clubbing over the head with the courts) those who refuse to accept Impossible / Un-Natural / Bestial / Multi-Polygamous "Marriage".
