Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

I'm not noticing any fires outside or massive riots or rampant famine.  The end hasn't come.  Fancy that.

To quote an old site I used to visit: patience is a virtue that brings its own rewards.
There is light and darkness in the world, to be sure.  However, there's no harm to be had in walking in the shade or shadows.

Yay for USA!
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Reading through the decision (currently mostly through Roberts' dissent), I really get the feeling that Kennedy wishes he could just say, "Living tree, fuck off."

I cannot wait for some GOP noms to scream they will fix this.  When it can't be fixed with out an Amendment.  And in the current political climate, that ain't happening.

The unelectable Republicans will be bitter about this all through 2016.

The Republican that may become our next president will pretend the GOP never held back civil rights -- at least until he can place another conservative puppet on the SCOTUS and a new case against same-sex marriage mysteriously comes down the pike.

Sanders, or whoever wins the Democratic primary, needs to throw this in the face of any GOP who states they'll fight it.  "So are you going to waste more taxpayers' money fighting this like you did Obamacare?  And do you understand what Freedom of Religion really means?  Do you even know that we have more than one religion in this country?  Are you trying to turn us into a Theocracy?"
