Supreme Court strikes down Defense of Marriage Act

TheRealVille Wrote:^Which god? Where in any official US document does it mention Jesus? Where, in any official US founding document does it mentio Christianity? How do we know the founders weren't trying to get away from England's Christianity, and found a country on religious freedom, where we get to decide what "god" we serve, individually? Now, there's a thought. Just sayin...


Christians are trying to force your god on the rest of us, through laws. It should be obvious the rest of us aren't going to let it happen.



This country was indeed founded upon Christian principles. Those principles have come under attack in earnest since the ACLU Supreme Court case of Everson versus Board of Education of Ewing Township, in 1947. That is when the worm began to turn. Frankly, you haven't been alive long enough to remember America during her great years. I suppose that is why you would see her smoldering on history's ash heap before you would ever cede any governing power back to conservatives, who knows? At any rate you keep missing the point. America has only diverted away from that Christianity that you keep denying and, which made her so great in the very recent past. I lived in that Christian nation that you deny ever existed so, as you may imagine, every time you try to act all knowledgeable, you actually look ridiculous to those of us who lived in Christian America.

Now, if you want to at least be accurate. You should say that the liberals have managed to sever nearly every surviving tether to the very moral authority on which our law is based, that being God's Holy Word. And that we Christians have sat on our hands watching it happen, baby step by baby step and living in our own state of denial. No, US law never cited chapter and verse but, we certainly understood that our concepts of morality were handed down to man from God's own hand. And, as I have mentioned, now that we seemingly have abandoned the standard on which our law is based, we no longer recognize absolutes. Since morality is no longer based on God's clear and concise Word, it has become subjective to what is perceived as extenuating circumstances in each and every argument that comes before the bench. Without absolutes, we can no longer depend on judges and lawmakers to make right and moral decisions. Instead, what was once clear case law has evolved into a vast wilderness of endless debate. No case is ever really over. And certainly no law is safe from endless reinterpretation and being debated into oblivion. Liberalism has effectively neutered the SCOTUS.
