Same Sex Marriage Takes A hit

The 6th circuit Court of Appeals has set the gears into motion for the United States Supreme Court to take up the same-sex marriage issue. 

No more dodging the issue

From the WND article"

"A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday stunningly affirmed the rights of voters in four states – Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee – to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman, throwing a boulder into the millpond of complacent assumptions by homosexual-rights advocates that same-sex marriage is a given across the United States.

Previous rulings from the high court on the issue have found that the institution is necessarily defined as the union of one man and one woman. In 1942, it said marriage is “fundamental to the very existence and survival of the race.” In 1888 it ruled, “An institution in the maintenance of which in its purity the public is deeply interested, for it is the foundation of the family and of society, without which there would be neither civilization nor progress.”

Oh-oh, the supreme court has already ruled once on this issue.  Said they: " the institution(of marriage) is necessarily defined as the union of one man and one woman. (marriage) is the foundation of the family and of society, without which there would be neither civilization nor progress.”

The next round should be most interesting.
