I think the courts did the right thing back then, legalizing Gay marriage. They did the same thing when the courts legalized interracial marriage, they declared denying it unconstitutional. If left up to the people, we probably will have that same ban today.

I, however, think what is done is done. Let's not try to overturn prop 8 and let's just rewrite some new legislation.

If only the No On 8ers who are slowing down traffic with their picket signs, invading sermons, calling Catholics fascists and Mormons scum, and creating hateful ads against Mormons would see it that way. I mean, you don't see McCain supporters or Yes On 4 (the parent notification bill) people protesting.

Personally, I don't believe that two people of the same sex should be "married" per say. But what I believe and what should be the law are two entirely different things.

However, I am also against the belief that the government should have the right and the power to regulate marriage at all. I think the government should only permit unions for insurance and living purposes and leave "marriage" up to whatever religious institution (or non-religious institution) the couple follows.

Churches should not be sued or held accountable in any way if they refuse to preform a ceremony for someone who lives a lifestyle which the teachings of the Church does not approve. If a gay couple after this still wants to be married then, nowadays, there are many licensed individuals and some Churches who are willing to preform the ceremony. Just leave the more traditionalists alone because its unrealistic to expect everyone to accept their relationship.
