The reason for the amendment would be to prevent the citizens of one or a handful of states to decicde to legalize sam sex marriage for all states.

Why can't that be done with a federal law? Doesnt the constitution already say that a federal law trumps a state law? Why do we want a constitutional amendment to our sacred constitution when a federal law will do?
If we are going to associate the bible into our constitution then I have a few other Amendments that can be made
