Until you can remove your bias from your statement mavdog you are spinning your wheels.
mcslulggo- first off ....good post. Obviously I was talking of the extreme since mavdog always injects the extreme in to his drivel. It is what you have to do with him.
Here is the best point of all so far....

It's an interesting debate, but I think if you're really in favor of states rights, then you should be in favor of the federal marriage amendment act. It doesn't prohibit any state from legalizing gay marriage. It simply prohibits one state from effectively changing the marriage laws of the other 49 states.

This very clear, very solid, very reasonable point gets stomped on by the mavdog's of the world who are not interested in State's rights, but rather furthering their agenda of forced homosexual acceptance.
With this in mind, the State of Texas has spoken and the voice was overwhelmingly clear. Although there are some who differ within that voice, the voice said that marriage is between man and woman. There is no "unjust" or "incorrect" or even harmful action taking place in this instance. This is not a law which says that gay couples cannot have benefits etc. It just says that their union is not one which fits the definition of marriage. To allow another state to override the will of the people in this state is wrong. And trying to fit a hotbutton issue like slavery into this is disingenuous.
