I'm actually a firm believer in majority rule, regardless of the issue. And yes, that even applies to abortion.

Oh, and the state government DOES have the right to interfere with your entering into a contract with another man if it violates a state amendment passed by over 60% of citizens in a given state, the state of Oklahoma as an example.

The law is the law is the law. Religion really has nothing to do with it. The law should be followed as it's written and voted for by the general public.

In regards to the previously mentioned full faith and credit and equal protection.....it depends on if you're looking at state law or federal law. Eventually the Supreme Court will probably give their two cents on this, and I'm willing to bet that a more conservative Supreme Court will leave the issue of gay marriages up to the states to decide. Many states have already decided by passing marriage amendments defining marriage.
