^VERY interesting read.

Here's my favorite parts:

Justice Sonya Sotomayor jumped in then."Outside of the -¬outside of the marriage context, can you think of any other rational basis, reason, for a state using sexual orientation as a factor in denying homosexuals benefits or imposing burdens on them?" she asked. "Is there any other rational decision-making that the government could make? Denying them a job, not granting them benefits of some sort, any other decision?"
"Your Honor, I cannot. I do not have any -- anything to offer you in that regard," Cooper said.

They've got NOTHING!

And History is bearing down on these dinosaurs who continue to deny rights to human beings....I can't wait for this decision....I want to see the faces of all the homophobes, I simply can't wait!

What's wrong with that? They are born that way and can't help it...

Thanks for picking up on that!

LOL, the avy helped...sarcasm can be tough to pick up on the internet, but figured you weren't advocating pedophilia.

I'm not advocating it...but...they are born with an attraction to minors, just like gays are attracted to each other, just like some people are born the "wrong" sex.

I saw a clip of this on youtube and it seem like the judges really did not want to decide this case one way or the other. I hope that they don't find some way of passing the buck off to the states. This is a human rights issue and even though some religions don't agree with homosexuality religion cannot ever stand in the way of human rights. If it does we are no better than any of the countries that we like to invade in the name of freedom.

Unfortunately Veg, that's what I think will happen. Back to the states for their own vote...again.
