For those of you who don't appreciate boosting Thomas Jackson's blog view count for the day, the link to the actual story is:

http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-gayma...

This is actually the best possible outcome of the many that were discussed prior to the ruling and actually a bit of a suprise considering the make-up of the court. A complete over-turning as unconstitutional of the law prohibiting the extension of the right marriage to lesbians and gays. While this ruling may add some impetus to the movement to amend the state constitution to revoke this newly recognized right. Hopefully the people of California will now see that movement for what it really is, a bigoted attempt attempt to punish lesbians and gays for seeing themselves as equal.

That's a really snotty thing to say. One would think you would be pleased to see that Topix Gay News had news on this before other gay news sites.???

Since Massachusetts has had same-sex marriage, what happened to Christians? to the nation? to the world?

NOTHING!

Not one single thing changed.

So what's all the fuss about?!

There is no fuss from true Christians. The fuss is from the hypocrites who call themselves Christians. God is love. those who love are born of God and know God. There is neither male nor female for those who are in Christ Jesus. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. God pours out His blessings on the just and the unjust. Glory to God in the highest for California's Supreme Court ruling. God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Marriage is based on love not sex. keep praising God.
