ok
so we have been opening up cans of worms of late.
I want to ask how is this ruling any different from what the laws should be for same sex marriage? legal.
I am not saying marriage in a church, what religions want to do when it comes to this issue is up to them. i mean legal, state-law marriage.

How is it the same?
The whole same sex marriage debate circles around homosexuals being discriminated against. They want to be entitled to the same benifits that married people are. Right wing conservatives don't think it is just, proper, and a sin under God's eyes. Right wing politicians don't want to offer them those constitutional rights, and upset their voters. Thats pretty much it, in time they will legalize it, and we will look back on it like the womens rights movement, or the whole equal rights movement of the 60s
This is just a silly law that was still in the books, that prohibited two unmarried people from living together. However they weren't seeking any of the rights that married couples have
well, obviously the similarity points right to this quote
That ruling showed that "the government has no business regulating relationships between two consenting adults in the privacy of their own home," Jennifer Rudinger, executive director of the ACLU of North Carolina, said in a statement.
i also agree with what u said in your post )
