No one wants to answer that. If the court can just redefine legal definitions to fit their opinion and thus changing the law then why not pedo equality? Or marry their dog? Or polygamy? Or maybe we should let that woman marry her model airplane she so loves.

Equality for all I suppose. Let us become like the Romans and collapse like them as well.

You can marry in the church.
If the pastor agrees to officiate without your having a state marriage license.
If they do, you can be married in the eyes of God. But not in the eyes of the state or federal government's.
Which means you get no benefits whatever under state law or federal laws. And even companies can refuse to grant you the special privileges afforded those who are 'legally' married.
This is further evidence America's government is secular. Not Christian theocratic.
If it were a Christian Theocracy we'd still own slaves. Because that's biblical.
Interracial marriage would still be illegal. And that would mean Jews couldn't marry non-Jews. Nor could Christians marry outside the faith.
But then again, there would only be Christians living here.
And there would be no religious freedom. And anyone not Christian would be precluded from serving public office. Because unlike today there would be a religious test to enter office. Jews would not qualify. Messianics being the exception.
Christianity's history shows us that faith does not absolutely imbue morality,common sense, decency, or integrity.
It does show us our ancestors slaughtered countless people and oppressed countless cultures in the name of primacy of the faith in the shadow of its cross. Here in America and abroad.
America is not a Theocracy! Period.
That's why America is a free country. And all living here are a free people.
Our founders knew life when church and state were one.
That's why they insured the new world would not make the same mistake in governance.
Christian principles did weave into the fabric of our founding.
Christian Theocracy never did.

lol, "We've been blundering forward so long that we have mercenaries who no longer care!"
lol. this is hardly a logical retort. you are doing a cardinal sin to the US Founders, you're taking the view that Government defines The People, because you cannot see that The People ARE NOT The Federal offices, the Federal Offices are Our Slaves.

Fundamental misunderstanding of the role of Citizen in his own government. You continue to separate the offices from the will of the persons who created the office as well as the persons who hold the offices for the persons who created the offices.
Governance is deeds, based on beliefs. Codes are the will of the People, in lands where The People are not Subject.
You're claiming that a mud pot isn't mud, because we glazed the outside with metallic oxides.
But I agree, you're correct under the view that DC and the Talmudist have given. We are SUBJECT to the whims of our own elected officials.
Officers are not servants, they are Betters, who must herd the Subjects under them to a better governance.
And why not? The Talmud insists you're all clay, and idolatrous clay at that, set only to be killed so your wealth can be given to a Talmudist.

Ephesians 6
because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free. 9And masters, do the same for your slaves. Give up your use of threats, because you know that He who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with Him.
Galatians 3
For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
lol, "Still have slaves..."
If we're Talmudist, like Israel, and I consider non-Talmudists as clay to be bought, sold, or destroyed at will, yes. If we're Muslim, like Africa, where I can buy a Chattle slave, yes. If we are Christian... lol

And one more thing,
Fact check: U.S. was not the only (or first) country to abolish slavery | Reuters
In Mexico, the institution of slavery was abolished in 1829 ( here ).
Colonial Haiti, then called Saint-Domingue, the uprising known as the Haitian Revolution (1791-1804) was the “only instance of a successful slave rebellion in world history and the founding event of the first modern black republic,” according to Time. Led by Toussaint Louverture, the Haitian revolution “constitutes a landmark in the history of abolition” ( here ). This decision was confirmed by the French government in 1794 ( here ). Further reading and commentary on this revolt, the impact of which reverberated around the region, can be found here , here and here .
