Yes, I've read the Bible too. And I see you've avoided my question. Homosexuality isn't mentioned very much in the Bible. What is talked about a lot is adultery and (heterosexual) sex outside of marriage. Why? Because that sex creates human beings. God knew a committed man and woman raising children together is the best way to do it. Look at the destruction in the black community because of unfettered heterosexual sex. And the normalization of single motherhood.
Homosexuality takes a HUGE backseat to those issues. But "Christians" really want to hate on some homos.

Yes and no. Shared assets and marriage licenses certainly bring it into the purview of the law.
They do, but they shouldn't. That is the point.
Leave the definition and declaration of marriage to the churches.
If a church recognizes gay marriage, and you opposed it, then don't attend that church. Pretty simple.
The state should not be involved. The state should only be involved in civil contracts between 2 or more consenting adults of any gender.

Yes. Marriage is a religious concept.
The state should only be involved in enforcing civil contracts between 2 or more consenting adults of any gender.
If anyone gets married in a church, but fails to engage in a civil contract, don't ask the courts to get involved in your breakup. Let the church handle that.

Marriage under the law IS just a civil contract and regime between too people.
Religious people’s opposition to it is literally rooted in the fact that it uses the word “marriage” which is absolutely hilarious to me.

Earl Warren wrote the decision in Loving. Kennedy was in private practice in 1967 when it was issued.
They're all based in Substantive Due Process. So overruling Obergfell means Loving should also be overruled.

Ideally they would change the legal name of marriage to a "civil union" for everyone and then leave "marriage" to religion.
Don’t ever complain about the left and its wordsmithing nonsense if this is your argument

The motivation to people organizing their local governments law one way or their other is irrelevant , there is no constitutional reason to dictate this at a local level.

To legally regard two co-habiting homos as the cultural and moral equal of a genuine husband-and-wife is the same demented mindset that conveys there's no difference between men and women, and thus, perverted dudes must have access to womens bathrooms and locker-rooms.
This country has been an off-kilter, sick joke of a nation ever since.

You make this argument all the time and it's ridiculous. I can argue a legal framework was disgustingly misapplied to a case without rejecting the legal framework.
This was a 5-4 decision, did Roberts in his dissent call for the overturning of Loving?

It's not if you understand why the rulings were made.
And I quoted Loving to you citing the SDP argument as its basis.
If SDP is removed, then what is left to support the ruling in Loving?
Feelings? Yes. Legal basis? Not so much.

Marriage actually started as more of a business contract than a religious one.
quote:
Marriage began around 4,350 years ago in Mesopotamia and was originally a social and economic institution used to form alliances between families, secure inheritance, and legitimize children. While prehistoric pair bonds likely existed for procreation and survival, formal marriage became an institution as humans transitioned to settled agricultural communities, requiring more structured family units and the concept of property. The modern concept of marrying for love is a much more recent development that emerged in the Middle Ages and became more common over time.

I don't need to. You're calling me citing SDP as the backbone of Loving "ridiculous" and "misapplied", and then when pressed to defend your stance, you resort to ad homs instead of substance.

Still trying to work out how marrying gay people didn't align with her beliefs, but getting 3 divorces did.
Protestants usually don't object to divorce. It's heterodox but sincere.
