Most Americans are disgusted by gays
Sure they are.

It probably wasn't the best idea ever to have a muslim landlord when you're a gay man.

What they should have done, and what many scholars (Otherwise known as equally qualified to sit on the bench) thought they would do, including me, was, send this back to the states or to the Federal legislative branch for consideration. Roberts himself mocked Ginsberg quoting her just three year earlier citing her point that domestic relations are uniquely the sole property of the States.. Well, yeah but that was three ago, She has so evolved since then.
Tim-
The Supreme Court may have forced this down our throats, but this just makes me hate gays where before, I didn't.
Submit our rights to congress to do the right thing? LOL not a chance. They aren't remotely qualified. They can decide when brand of toilet paper gets used at public schools, that's about all i trust them with
Actually Churches have no choice but to follow their parishioners or die. Is that what you are suggesting? That they go down with the ship? Biblical scriptures have been interpreted in different ways since the beginning and it won't stop now.
And why do they always use the phrase "forced down our throats?"
I'm fairly sure nothing in this ruling or any other ruling/law requires or even suggests it is required that churches marry same-sex couples.This isn't the end of it. There will be lawsuit after lawsuit against churches who refuse to marry same-sex couples. Religious freedoms are now being violated.
Nine old dudes though are totally qualified.
True.
Both rulings will bite them in the ass.
ObamaCare is already so unpopular that it couldn't be mentioned in the 2014 Midterms elections....by the Democrats.
The Supreme Courts ruling on subsidies put ObamaCare right back in the laps of the Democrats and let the GOP Congress off the hook.
Let them celebrate. They won't be after the 2016 elections.

Oh for crying out loud, this is America, not Saudi Arabia.

Only that they must be granted a marriage licence.
I know! Just like how all those interracial couples sued church after church when there were churches that refused to marry interracial couples after those bans were ruled unconstitutional! Exactly like that!
Did you disagree with the Libertarian State's Rights views of Roberts and Kennedy on gutting voting rights and citizens divided 1.0 and 2.0?
And have you read the scathing dissents from Scalia, breaking personal decorum--that old dude ?
interracial couples were not as militant as these gay activists are. they are much more sue happy than the before.
they will not hesitate to file a lawsuit against a pastor or a church citing discrimination for not allowing them to marry but allowing other couples to.
still can't understand roberts' ruling from the day before though; where if congress' intentions are noble then the law can change retroactively to support a good cause... but agree on this one

Heterosexual couples can't sue a church for not marrying them. Same sex couples will not be able to sue either. No lawsuits here sorry. Churches need not marry anyone for whatever reason.
Cite the statute that says this.*sigh*
just because you say so is idiotic.
pastors are authorities in the state to conduct a marriage ceremony and sign the marriage license. they technically could be forced to do so.
Public accommodation laws do not apply to churches in any state.most church open their doors to people outside the church for weddings and such. most will stop doing this as a court (and they have) can cite public accommodation
and force the church to allow gay marriage.
Absurd. There are tax-exempt religious schools out there telling kids the earth is 6000 years old.religious schools and other religious organizations are now at risk for losing tax exempt status for citing that they believe marriage is between a man and a women.
Soon as they can would be today. Let's make a bet.no these militant activist as soon as they can will have lawsuits against pastors and church's not allowing gays to use their buildings and for pastors not marrying them.
as an adult yes, but religious condemnation has often led to suicide of closeted teenagers surrounded by that mentality.
