| Sorry, but one of the things that the founders were trying to create was a land free of tyranny. The tyranny of the majority is still tyranny. Nobody is forcing anyone to marry the same sex. And no one is stopping the same sex from forming families. They have been doing it for some time now. What is happening is that people have decided that same sex families are not as good as other families. This is not a new thing in this country. Women were once considered by the law to be inferior to men as well as blacks. They did not get their rights by changing the minds of the majority. They got their rights by going the constitution and showing that they were not being given equal treatment under the law. The majority didn't like it. Tough shit. As time passed it became obvious that they were wrong. What people need to understand is that just because it is a "Christian" tradition doesn't make it special in any way. It is just another tradition as far as the law is concerned and it is either lawful or not. If it were up to "Christian tradition" women would still be chattel and blacks would still be slaves.
