WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court declared Friday that same-sex couples have a right to marry anywhere in the United States.

Gay and lesbian couples already could marry in 36 states and the District of Columbia. The court's 5-4 ruling means the remaining 14 states, in the South and Midwest, will have to stop enforcing their bans on same-sex marriage.

Yesterday, the Republican Party gave us Obamacare, via the Supreme Court which they control.

Today, the Republican Party gave us universal gay marriage, via the Republican Supreme Court.

Let the excuses for the Republicans begin to flow. But know this: they are all lies. The Republicans appointed the judges that gave us Roe v Wade, and the Republicans controlled the court that expanded Roe v Wade, and the Republicans gave us Kelo, and Obamacare and gay marriage.

That is the legacy of the Republican Party since 1973: being the final, decisive political force that enacted abortion, property confiscation, socialized medicine and gay marriage into constitutional law.

Now listen to all of the Republican rubes howl about the Democrats. It's comical.

I cannot argue your approach as GOP presidents DID appoint the left leaning justices. The other question is how long can Catholic bishops keep giving communion to the 6 justices who are Roman Catholic?

The Catholic Bishops will keep doing it forever. They're wrong, and the institutional Church has lost its way, just as it did back in the middle ages.

Perhaps Christianity lost its way when it institutionalized. It does not seem to serve Christ very well to have sunk all of that money into buildings and lands and vestments and high salaries for priest and preachers. That wasn't how the Apostles lived, or Jesus. They would have taken all that money spent on those things and gained sheep for the flock by feeding the poor.

Perhaps that's the problem with the Church, and the churches, all along. They want to be career paths. But they're not intended to be that.

I agree. Seemed worship of the 'called out ones' was even done joyfully by a river:

Acts 16:

13 And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there.

Simple and practical. A river close so they could baptize!

A rather routine practice in the early churches.

They didn't have a temple or established meeting place which helped them avoid the incitement of pagans to magistrates to persecute them.

And "believe and be baptised" was taken very seriously. If they actually believed, there could be no excuse for not being baptized. A quick test to weed out a lot of easy-believerism, particularly among the "god-fearer" faction that had grown up around many Jewish synagogues of the era.
