Rhodeachusetts, An Island That Will Not Be: State High Court Rejects Same Sex "Divorce"
ADF Attorney Austin R. Nimocks has a new post on the Constitutionally Correct blog discussing the recent ruling by the Rhode Island Supreme Court in Chambers v. Ormiston. Austin observes:
On Friday, the Rhode Island Supreme Court affirmatively and forcefully rebuffed the Massachusetts assault on its marriage laws. The advocates of homosexual behavior are undoubtedly puzzled by this decision since, according to their briefs filed in the case, Rhode Island somehow never had any marriage laws. In Rhode Island, GLAD argued that “[t]his divorce action plainly involves a marriage” and that the term “marriage” is somehow “ambiguous.” . . . Of course, ADF’s counterpoint to this argument was that “‘Marriage’ in Rhode Island is not ambiguous and only means the union of one man and one woman—no more and no less.”
