New York's Highest Court Rules In Favor Of Traditional Marriage
"The Court held that the state of New York had at least two rational reasons for refusing to recognize same-sex marriages.

"'First, the Legislature could rationally decide that, for the welfare of children, it is more important to promote stability, and to avoid instability, in opposite-sex than in same-sex relationships. ... The Legislature could [also] rationally believe that it is better, other things being equal, for children to grow up with both a mother and a father. Intuition and experience suggest that a child benefits from having before his or her eyes, every day, living models of what both a man and a woman are like.'

"The Court also stated, 'The idea that same-sex marriage is even possible is a relatively new one. Until a few decades ago, it was an accepted truth for almost everyone who ever lived, in any society in which marriage existed, that there could be marriages only between participants of different sex. A court should not lightly conclude that everyone who held this belief was irrational, ignorant or bigoted. We do not so conclude.'"

Happy 4th of July!

This is a tangental blog to my "Lex Orandi. Lex Credendi." blog. I needed one little blog to just post more miscellaenous posts, but still in reference to the holy Catholic Faith.

(By the way, the picture is of my cat getting into the patriotic spirit. She really misses New York!)
