Landmark ruling would force U.S. to recognize ‘gay marriage’

Michael Foust writes at Baptist Press: “‘Individual states shouldn’t have the right to impose a radical redefinition of marriage on the rest of America,’ said Brian Raum, senior counsel of the Alliance Defense Fund. ‘This judge’s claim that there’s no reason whatsoever for marriage to be defined as one man and one woman should go down as one of the most outrageous rulings in court history.’ Raum noted that ‘it was a condition of statehood” that marriage be defined as one man, one woman “during the polygamy battle in the 19th century.’”
