Well, marriage shouldn't have anything to do with government whatsoever, so... yeah. I do consider it ridiculous. As long as it has something to do with bullshit on taxes, then whatever... but since it's wrong for that to be the case anyways: I don't want to see religious matters infringed just because bad laws were on the books in the first place.
If your state wanted to legalize it, that was their right. You have the power to vote within your state, and you have the power to move freely between the 48 contiguous united states (and to get married in a different state, whether or not yours recognizes it). To take it to SCOTUS, and to have them rule on it and create a nationwide precedent was really a gross use of their power.
Sometimes you have to respect the opinions of the people you disagree with. There were many manners of change available, this one is one I don't much respect having been chosen.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
