I want to know where they think gay people come from.
I mean, they seem to know that gay people can't procreate with each other, but somehow they've come to the conclusion that it means they'll die out if they quarantine them.
Maybe the thought just hasn't occurred to them that gay people are actually just their sons and daughters.
There's been unofficial gay days at Disney since the 90's, not to mention they have started selling merchandise for it.
The less bigots at the park the better.

Allen West thinks the ruling has oppened up a constitutional argument for legal pedophilia because END OF DAYS SLIPPERY SLOPE OF GAYPOCALYSE
Basically they dug up an article from 2-4 years ago and said omg now it's probably constitutional thanks a lot gay marriage.
But yes it's the gay folk who are so hateful towards these christians

Because Obama, kissed a man, that photo is so real!!!! Obama is gay, spreading his impure agenda through the US. God is angry hurrur derpity derp. It's just a stupid photoshopped image that gives us a good reason to laugh at anyone who believes it's actually real. Especially that Oprah photoshop, lol. When I saw it the first thing I was reminded of
That's hilarious. "I'm LMAOing at your life."

Man, people are doubling down on my FB with the gay pride and the Confederate flag thing. I mean, I shouldn't be surprised as it IS Texas.
That's some awesome satire... I think it should be turned into a meme and passed around. Bonus points if some anti gay marriage person WTF's it and still doesn't get the irony in the fact that their attitude is pretty much the same thing (and I bet it would happen a lot. But it would be hilarious for those that got the joke).

I wonder what it's like being filled with such hatred? They must have really empty lives to focus on ruining the happiness of others.

I love how the majority of the nation just showcased that they are fine with gays being gay, and yet shit like this is being perpetuated as if to say "yeah, but now its YOUR PRESIDENT! Didn't see that coming, did you?".
The real sad part is that the core is not hatred. It's pure terror that the thing you've always been told is the devil just happened.
Think about how petrifying that is to someone.
I assume that as well. It seems to me that if everyone just had a couple of nice hobbies next to a nice job they'd have much less time to hate.

It wouldn't feel like being filled with hatred to them. They would be scared, offended, sure--that's what happens when someone attacks your most preciously held 'truths'. But they would also take comfort in knowing that their views are justified and essentially correct.
Because it's not about common sense. It's not about what feels right (this the part where you "let the Lord into your heart").
It's about the arbitrary laws made up by the magical Santa Claus up in Heaven, the laws which they have come to love, because it's what will grant them access to eternal bliss.
They're so in love with themselves and their own salvation that it doesn't even matter how the sinners will be unjustly doomed to an eternity of hideous torture over disobeying a footnote.

There's gotta be something else at play here though, right? If it was purely for religious reasons then you should be able to separate your personal beliefs from what society at large should be doing, you should be able to say 'well homosexuality is against my religion, but not everybody shares my faith so that's on them'. It'd be like if Muslims demanded that pork be banned from sale just because they don't eat it, but that doesn't happen because it would be ridiculous. Muslims just don't buy pork products.
It honestly says to me that they simply don't like LGBT people. It's telling that of all the things people do that is supposedly 'sinful', this is the thing they focus on.

Would you like someone who commits sin and revels in it, the worst thing possible? They would scare the shit out of you. Like, you could be staring at them and seeing in your mind's eye flashes of their bloodied corpse in Hell.
You would not just 'let them be', you would do everything in your power to sweep them under the rug, or better yet, try to convert them.
Of course, there are also moderate Christians, or those who sort of believe when it's convenient to quell their existential angst.

That may be, but like I said I think it's telling that this is the sin they focus on so much. They don't seem all that bothered by all the avarice amongst a lot of the right for example. Funny that.

Right. I would say it's a good thing, even though it reeks of compartmentalization and not being completely intellectually consistent with the Bible. Then again, "intellectually consistent" and "the Bible" isn't exactly a match made in heaven. But ehh, who gives a shit.
Moderate pro gay christians are actually slowly becoming the majority.
I guess it's what's popular this season. Not so cool to hate on wearing clothes of wool and linen anymore.
Yeah, it's always astonishing to me how many opponents of same sex marriage don't realise this parallel:

The "gay people never procreate" argument is especially funny to me, because I have lesbian parents (and one of them is my biological mother).

Funny thing is those gay people were probably a product of a straight couple. I know I was. Someone needs to tell straight people to stop making gay babies.

The procreation excuse was always bullshit since women who are past the age of menopause can legally marry.

Conservatives love to talk about government interference in personal choices but when it comes to government helping the poor and giving health care then they couldn't care less. Jesus' teachings were always about helping poor and sick people but these Christians would not demand government do a thing to help anyone.

I tuned in to Glenn Beck on AM radio for all of 2 minutes on my way to work. He sure made it worth my while!
Glenn Beck's co-host, or guest (not sure) says that Ted Cruz is looking into the possibility that the Supreme Court ruling only applies to the cases it ruled on, and not the entire country. So it might be possible to pass gay marriage bans in other states, have them challenged, and by the time they're appealed to the Supreme Court, its makeup may have changed.
Okay, stay with me. So Glenn says he doesn't think it works that way. But the other guy's not finished. He says that someone said the same thing to Ted Cruz, pointing out that Brown vs. the Board of Education was applied to the whole nation. And Ted's response was "but that was the right decision, and it was a unanimous decision. This is the wrong decision, and it was 5-4". So Glenn says that Ted Cruz has "made a good point", and maybe there's something to it.
Very amusing.
Note: I may have mixed up who said what; I'm not familiar with the voices and have trouble telling who's talking sometimes.

Except that won't happen and judges will fine cash strapped states for wasting their time making frivolous laws.
Damn this is sooo good. She'll have this memory of being little, and quiet, and standing steadfast in the face of this boisterous, aggressively hateful "adult" her whole life. She'll get bigger and stronger and he'll just become more and more of a cartoon villain in her mind as the years pass.
Especially given that plenty of heteronormative couples can't either. Infertility is not uncommon, not to mention vasectomies, tied tubes and older couples who also can't procreate. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.
In any event we have advances in in vitro fertilization. I can't remember the article (I'll look and post it if I can) where female induced pluripotent stem cells were reprogrammed to include the SRY gene (the important one on the y chromosome), so that combined with IVF could lead to two biological mothers in the future.... science wins.

I heard a bit of a Cruz interview on NPR where he noted basically the same thing. It was along the lines of the ruling not applying to those administrators for whom their "religious rights" would be compromised.
The interviewer asked him if he was saying that the Supreme Court should be ignored, and Cruz said something that pretty well doubled down on what he had just said. He was VERY picky about his word choice, and spoke slowly.

Only problem is that, with this ruling, any legislation passed on the state level which prevents LGBTQ people from obtaining marriage licenses at all is unconstitutional according to the Constitution of the United States.
Soooo... Sorry red states.
You're absolutely right, but I don't think it will be as easy for them to usurp this ruling as they have with abortion for example. I expect for them to give up on this one much sooner.
