Zappa you continue to ignore the import of the ninth ammendment which is very clear that there are rights that are not enumerated in the constitution.
Here is the key text of the gay marriage decision
Quote:
(4) The right to marry is a fundamental right inherent in the liberty of the person, and under the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment couples of the same-sex may not be deprived of that right and that liberty. Same-sex couples may exercise the fundamental right to marry. Baker v. Nelson is overruled. The State laws challenged by the petitioners in these cases are held invalid to the extent they exclude same-sex couples from civil marriage on the same terms and conditions as opposite-sex couples.
The Fourteenth Amendment requires States to recognize same- sex marriages validly performed out of State. Since same-sex couples may now exercise the fundamental right to marry in all States, there is no lawful basis for a State to refuse to recognize a lawful same-sex marriage performed in another State on the ground of its same-sex character.
You do realize the floodgates that opens, right? For thousands of years marriage has meant one thing. The only reason this is even an issue is because the government discriminates on the basis of marital status. Maybe the government should stop discriminating.

to the modern western world maybe, Nero had married at least 2 men, it wasnt uncommon in greece or rome up until around 350AD when a christian emperor banned same sex marriages, 13 of 14 emperors of rome were bi sexual or strictly homosexual and several of those had same sex spouses. in china same sex marriages were also not uncommon, on this contenent, while it wasnt marriage as the church would recognize it, it was also not uncommon amongst the indians, again it seems that anywhere that religions such as christianity flourished that these same sex marriages were outlawed
but hey, you can live in the dark ages and not suck dick for a wedding band

insurance companies also discriminate on the basis of marital status, hospitals can refuse a non-spouse entry to the ICU which left many same sex couples in some real shit situations during a medical crisis

open the floodgates to what exactly? a better society? same sex couples should be allowed to marry. polygamy, provided that everyone is a consenting adult, should be legalized too (with limits on how many people you can enter a legally binding contract with). while i'm neither gay nor poly, it seems to me that allowing people to live how they want would be for the greater good seeing that neither of these lifestyles is implicitly harmful. we spend so much time worrying about how everyone else lives, and the only people it seems to truly benefit are the elites who rule us. i wonder what type of society we would have if we spent more time paying attention to what those people are really up to instead of arguing over who marries who.

I said they are state issues. Everybody gets their say and let the chips fall where they may. In this hypothetical scenario everyone will know where they stand and can act accordingly. So a gay couple could say "oh you dont like us marrying? Cool, ill take my business, my income, and taxes elsewhere". Like a large scale Montgomery Bus Boycott. Outsiders could observe " state X doesn't alow gay marriage, lets not do business there". The flip side could work "we alow gay marriage, come one, come all, bring your families. Bring everything, salgood"
Abortion is used as birth control which flies in the face of Roe v Wades "safe,legs and rare" cop out. Abortion is a debate way beneath me.

When it comes to marriage, there would have been one other constitional problem for states that chose to ban gay marriage: the constitution requires that all states recognize legal and contractual agreements made in the other states. so, as long as gay marriages were recognized and legally valid in one state, every state would be required to honor those marriages. They might have gotten away with not permitting such marriages to occur within the state, but they could not prevent a couple from getting married elsewhere.
Article IV, Section 1: Full faith and credit shall be given in each state to the public acts, records, and judicial proceedings of every other state. And the Congress may by general laws prescribe the manner in which such acts, records, and proceedings shall be proved, and the effect thereof

Yeah well, marriage has been around for thousands of years. It's kinda engrained in society by now. Kinda like how the most dangerous drug (alcohol) is legal everywhere and weed is illegal. Alcohol has been popular everywhere for thousands of years. It anchored itself in society.
As for the floodgates opening; yes. We will all drown in civil liberties. It's gonna be horrible.

How fortunate for the non-bigoted that it doesn't have to.

but states were not giving all people equal protection under the law, one state makes it legal while another state refuses to recognize it, if in order to make money you need to move to a different state that doesnt recognize your marriage then how will that play out and as you've just shown, this only plays well for those that can afford an interstate move. suppose that move entails crossing the country. the whole concept will allow for discrimination against some group or another for which ever rights the individual states choose
maybe you could explain it to me. how does same sex marriage harm anyone

your opinion is contradicted by the fact that we have a federal republic in which the states are beholden to federal law. gay marriage and abortion was left to the states, but the courts had to intervene on behalf of the public because, in both cases, the states were violating constitutional rights.
