                I knew a couple who moved out of state because their fellow citizens decided to formalize their fear and hatred in law. Today is a great vindication, as is the fact that the couple, who probably earn around $500k combined, have been kicking all those lovely tax dollars to MD for the last 6 years.

                Battle's nearly over, folks.
                Of course it is. The minute Justice Kennedy's cited the 14th Amendment in the DOMA case and Justice Scalia in his dissent gave every court the legal boilerplate, it was legally over.

                On moral grounds I disagree. But it's legal and short of a Constitutional Amendment it's not changing.

                  I never have, and never will understand, the "moral grounds" argument. Any "morality" associated with marriage was destroyed long, long ago.

                    It does seem like whenever civil rights are extended to a group traditionally discriminated against, the reaction is expressed on moral grounds. And yet morality has survived the extension of equal rights to Catholics, women, blacks, and even the Irish.

                      And that's a crying shame if immorality is the norm.

                        What, pray tell, would you consider to be immoral?

                          Wow, no one spoke up about you bringing her up rather than letting her fade into memory. Perhaps even they realize she won't willingly go away - quietly or not.

                            "Immorality" has been the norm for centuries. Arranged marriages, incestual marriages, marriages of convenience etc. have been around for centuries. "Morality" in marriage has been long gone.

                              Morality in marriage depends on each cultures norms. 1000 years ago when arranged, incestual marriages were the norm all over the place, there was nothing consifered immoral about it. Looking back at it now, we seem to have a different view of marriage, so those norms seem outrageous.
