Ramification #1:
As I said in quite a few Facebook posts...marriage and equality
had nothing to do with the Federal Court’s interest in same-sex marriage. How
two people relate to one another is none of the Fed's business. A government
interest is limited to the heterosexual union because it is the only union that
produces constituents. Each of us without exception exists through some form of a heterosexual union. Same-sex relationships do not
produce offspring. In any free and functioning society, there is a government
interest in encouraging as much procreation as possible. Its called a tax base or taxpayer. Without some form of heterosexuality even if it is only sperm and an egg, there is no reproduction of taxpayers. If we are to be logically consistent we need to take the reasoning down to this level. Yes, surrogates and/or adoption can be used to created gay families but where do we suppose those children come from? From under rocks?
Ramification #2:
Same-sex marriage is only the beginning of philosophical demands
for State (meaning Feds) recognition and approval of many other types of relationships. Others
include polygamy, incest, bestiality, pedophilia, pederasty, etc. This will
mark the sudden beginning of an even more sudden end for same-sex marriage.
They will no longer be the judicial and cultural darlings of the media.
Ramification #3:
A move to force equality nearly always leads to
inequality for someone else. There’s a movement that we are already seeing on
Facebook and lunatic conspiracy sites that are calling for state laws that call
for the abolition of marriage to undermine the Federal ruling. If same-sex
marriage becomes the law of the land, it will set the precedent for abolishing
marriage to avoid the need to perform same-sex marriage. Its called cutting one's nose off to spite one's face.
Far from getting the state out of the marriage business, it
will invite the state to regulate all familial relationships, particularly
those with children. Once the state doesn’t have to recognize your marriage, it
is free to treat your spouse and children as strangers to you. Children become
wards of the state. Tax codes change to penalize those that do not follow the cultural
trend(s).
Ramification #4:
This thought adds to thought #3. The issue of Federal
intrusion runs even deeper. We have now just invited the Federal government directly into
our bedrooms (homes) and set a precedence through Federal law to allow Federal
judges to intervene directly into our personal affairs. This Supreme Court
ruling was never about homosexuality or marriage for the Fed court themselves
(it was only about those issues for the pro-gay lobby and Christians). At a
litigious or legal level it was about what "constitutes" or defines a
"civil" right. That definition has just been changed. I've always
said this was about postmodern deconstructing of language as are most Supreme
Court rulings. The 10th Amendment has literally been undermined now. Everyone
jumped on board because of the calls for "equality" and "justice"
which I sort of understand. But to what end?
Ramification #5:
The Constitution has been undercut through legal precedence
in the highest court in the land on June 26th, 2015. People's
antipathy of religious faiths that opposed same-sex marriage literally blinded
them to their own detriment. In an effort to kill a snake under their boot (religious
resistance to same-sex marriage) they shot straight though their own foot to
kill it. This was and always had been about Federal Government overreach as any
State Government will tell you. Even the conservative justices didn't tell you
this because in the end, this ruling benefits them too by extending their power
at the Federal level. The Feds just usurped an enormous amount of power from
the states and the individual constituent. This ruling now expands IRS
practices and will massively allow the intrusive power of government directly
into people's lives though precedents. Couldn't see the forest for the trees
could we? It was right in front of everyone the whole time and no one could see
it.
Ramification #6:
Transgenderism, transsexualism and further gender confusion
has now become part of this due to timing and cultural paradigm shift. Americans
have not thought through the implications of same-sex marriage and how it is
logically a big step (through the slippery slope) to erasing all sexual and
gender distinctions in a system run by Positive Law. Everything including
gender becomes morally relative. If we become legally sexless, the implications
to families and definitions of family will be profound. There will be no more
families because they will be impossible to define even for tax reasons. There’s
already a push to eliminate sex identification at birth, which could mean
removing sex distinctions on birth certificates. Some states have already moved
towards “gender-less” restrooms under the guise of being non-discriminatory. This
will seem logical because all gender identity non-discrimination laws already
presume that everybody’s sex is something arbitrarily “assigned” to them at
birth (Example: Bruce Jenner).
Ramification #7
Because of the blatant and major erosion of the 10th
Amendment it will be open season for licensing or direct control of parents
just like we’ve seen the government hand in school lunches, etc. Due to the possibility
of infringement on the 10th Amendment and the abolition of sex distinctions and
civil marriage we allow the Feds to gain control over deciding family decisions. What
happens in court issues of of maternity or paternity if we go gender-less? It is the cultural understanding that children
“belong” to communities (the State), not families. Anybody remember Hillary
Clinton’s 1996 book It Takes A Village?
She was dead serious about what she wrote in the book. Many others are on board
with her line of thinking also. This ruling inevitably makes children into
possessions invariably controlled by the State. For all my Christian missionary
friends and Christian activists…this will increase the possibility and prevalence
of State sanctioned human trafficking.
Ramification #8
This ruling puts the trajectory of Government onto a head-on
collision with the Christian beliefs (and other faiths) and eventual undermining of the 1st
Amendment. Please note I didn’t say abolition of the 1st amendment.
That will never happen. The courts will just change the meaning of words until
the words have no meaning in the Constitution. They’re already doing it now in
this ruling. Catholic charities are closing some of their adoption services
where same-sex marriage laws pressure them to reject their church’s teachings
about marriage and family. Funding for Christian schools and colleges that
refuse to get on board with the new pro-gay rulings will find themselves without
funding or as the Solicitor General said in the preceding arguments leading up
to the Obergefell v. Hodges ruling, funding
to Christian schools will become “an issue”. Additionally, as we have already
seen with Christian bakeries...owners of businesses that serve
the wedding industry are being forced to either scrap their consciences or shut
their doors. Anti-discrimination lawsuits against churches that don’t perform
same-sex marriages will undoubtedly be forthcoming.
Ramification #9:
If you think the bullying of business and churches is bad
now….it most assuredly will escalate. As there is no longer a Christian
majority to stand in the gaps and protect the little man. Anti-Christian belief has now been
institutionalized. Expressing an opinion against institutionalized norms will solicit
the wrath of the institution itself (Government) through legal means. It’s called hate speech, hate
crimes, etc. Based on a statement by Justice Kennedy himself about the same-sex
marriage ruling… any opposition to same-sex marriage was tantamount to animus or open hostility (violence). In
other words, just saying the words in church will be considered hate crime.
Ramification #10:
It is my personal belief this is to be universal and
worldwide. The United States of America is the trendsetter worldwide. The United
States is already punishing countries and threatening to cut off aid if they
don’t accept the LGBT agenda. This is imperialism at its worst and its being
foisted right on the American people who disagree with the SCOTUS decision. Those that disagree are primarily Christian, Jewish and Muslim.
