[QUOTE="jayem, post: 73004483, member: 8344"] Let's face it... societies, populations, cultures, and values change over time. What was thought to be right and proper 100 years may no longer be acceptable or expedient in today's world. And what was once thought to be taboo, may no longer be objectionable. At the very least, we absolutely do have the right--if not the duty-- to change our laws to reflect the realities of modern life. As Thomas Jefferson said, the present belongs to the living, not the dead. SCOTUS did what it has the authority to do. Which is to rule purely on the LEGAL status of state marriage laws. That's all it did. I have a traditional marriage. The Obergefell decision doesn't demean your, or my, or anyone else's traditional marriage in any way. [/QUOTE]
