Loosing the Gay civil Rights Battle in some States, the Church asks relief from the Supremes
Gays Activists know history better than most people because. They have to. You see we are following the path of others that have been wronged by religion and the government when they asked to be treated equally as everybody else. As many loses they had eventually the message got thru through all the lies about women vote destroying the Republic, the slaves will make the nation ignorant like they were and finally that mix marriages will offspring mentally disabled children.
Just like gays will destroy the marriages of straights and I’ll stop here because Im beginning to want to laugh and this is a subject in which is a matter of life and liberty for so many. Some churches want the supremes involved which is what the gay activists have been asking them to take certain cases,
As they show the court confusion, overlapping and unfairness of the laws now it should be enough matches to start the fire in which we believe that the court composed of these elderly people more than half Republican will vote as other courts have voted under similar circumstances: Everyone is equal under the law and thus needs the same rights and protections under the law.
The Mormon church and four religious organizations are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene and settle once and for all the question of whether states can outlaw gay marriage.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in a statement Friday, said it joined a friend-of-the-court brief asking the high court to hear Utah's marriage case.
Also taking part in the filing were The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, the National Association of Evangelicals, the Ethics & Religious Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention and the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.
Each teaches that marriage is between a man and a woman.
"The time has come to end the divisive national debate as to whether the Constitution mandates same-sex marriage," the brief states.
Multiple organizations and governmental entities on both sides of the debate have filed similar briefs asking the court to take up the issue.
The religious groups urged the Supreme Court on the basis of tradition and religious freedom to uphold a state's right to not allow gay and lesbian couples to wed.
"Legal uncertainty is especially burdensome for religious organizations and religious believers increasingly confronted with thorny questions," the brief says. "Is their right to refrain from participating in, recognizing or facilitating marriages between persons of the same sex, contrary to their religious convictions, adequately shielded by the First Amendment and other legal protections? Or is further legislation needed to guard religious liberties in these and other sensitive areas?"
Last month, attorneys for three Utah gay and lesbian couples formally asked the U.S. Supreme Court to take Utah's appeal of a favorable gay marriage ruling by a lower federal court.
The plaintiffs said they asked for the review even though they won at the federal appellate court level because they want the Supreme Court to weigh in on whether state same-sex marriage bans violate the Constitution.
The high court is under no obligation to take Utah's case or the others.
