Had you bothered to read the article, you would have seen the crux of the anti-gay marriage proponents "... argument that prohibiting same-sex marriage was necessary to protect the government’s “overriding interest of responsible procreation and childrearing.”"

I saw the Op this morning .au time and read the article later in the morning at work.
The judge and the bench have erred in declaring so blatantly that "marriage" has nothing to do with the critical mass of opposite gender, Darwinian mate selection and the mother/father/offspring model we call "the nuclear family".

What the judicial activists, (unlike the voters,) have failed to realise is that by breaking down the nexus between heterosexual mating/procreation and marriage, they have eroded any bulwarks that they might have been able to use to defend against marriage in the form of - consanguineous relationships, marriages of legal convenience, bisexual polygamy, single humans who claim the 'right' to be married to non-humans...etc.
Apart from the right to be married to non-humans I don't see the problem with any of this.

Quote:"The state’s current laws deny its gay and lesbian citizens their fundamental right to marry and, in so doing, demean the dignity of these same-sex couples for no rational reason," wrote U.S. District Court Judge Robert J. Shelby. "Accordingly, the court finds that these laws are unconstitutional."

If Utah is not safe for regressives, where is?

Mississippi? Texas? Just throwin' a few out for consideration.

There's no stopping the fabulanche.

Avalanches fall DOWN slopes.

Strange that procreation got a special mention/exclusion.
The judge probably doesn't care if the offspring are fertile either.

Explain to me again why I need the consent of my pet goat when the goat has no constitutional rights under New Mexico law?

Holy Fuckballs.....

Quote:SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A federal judge struck down Utah's same-sex marriage ban Friday in a decision that marks a drastic shift toward gay marriage in a conservative state where the Mormon church has long been against it.

The decision set off an immediate frenzy as the clerk in the state's most populous county began issuing marriage licenses to gay couples while state officials took steps to appeal the ruling and halt the process.

Mormon shitwits must be pissing in the magic underwear!

I bet Texas will legally recognize same sex marriages before Australia does.

I can't help but smile when I think of all of those people who are so emotionally invested in denying equal rights for gays. It must feel like the walls are collapsing around them. Good. Fuck 'em. They are on the wrong side of history on this issue, and there's no turning back.

It doesn't matter whether I agree or not: that was pretty funny XD

It's like the Christians aren't happy if they haven't got someone to oppress or persecute.

And when they're told they can longer do that they whine that they're being persecuted

Oklahoma now.

And the governor is so pissed she's shitting turds with edges!

Quote:Gov. Mary Fallin spoke out against the ruling, which she said defied the views of 75% of those who voted in favor of limiting marriage to a man and woman.

"I support the right of Oklahoma's voters to govern themselves on this and other policy matters," Fallin said. "I am disappointed in the judge's ruling and troubled that the will of the people has once again been ignored by the federal government."

Yes...because someday she may want the good voters of Oklahoma (fine xtians, all, no doubt) to vote to resume slavery for blacks.
