My home state of Massachusetts has been forced by its Supreme Court to grant state marriage licenses to homosexual couples. Curiously, today's court imposed deadline to begin handing out the marriage certificates falls on the fiftieth anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education. Do you suppose the judges were trying to make a political statement?

Court imposed gay "marriage" undermines democracy. Four judges defied the will of the majority of the more than 6 million residents of Massachusetts. They invented a right to same-sex marriage that doesn't appear in the Bay State's Constitution--the oldest written constitution still in operation in the world. Do you think its authors had this in mind when they wrote it? Read the document and you'll see about a dozen references to God in the first few paragraphs, but nothing in the entire text about gays or lesbians.

Opponents of traditional marriage know that they can't win through the normal democratic process. Think about it.

The U.S. Senate voted 85 to 14 to keep marriage between a man and a woman. The U.S. House of Representatives voted 342-67 for the same piece of legislation. President Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act into law. Thirty-eight U.S. states have passed their own defense of marriage acts. No state--not even Massachusetts or Vermont--has voluntarily legalized gay "marriage." Even California voters rejected gay "marriage" by a huge margin.

In every civics class, children learn that the legislature makes law and the judiciary interprets law. In Massachusetts, the courts do both.
