Discussion of religion in the context of LGBTQ+ rights is only allowed in the LGBTQ+ Rights and Religion Thread
.
Discussion of religion in any other context is off topic in all of the "LGBTQ+ rights..." threads.
Attempting to bait others into bringing up religion is also not allowed.

They say the bans are unconstitutional, so it sounds like same sex marriage is legal.
But the bans are still being reviewed, so technically same sex marriage isn't legal.
So yes it is a contradiction in terms!
Or it is when I'm throwing semantics to the wind.

You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stayFrom a British perspective it's best looked at this way. The Democrats are right wing, the Republicans are really right wing and the Tea Party (who are taking over much of the Republican party) are batshit insane.

Has a state judge ever upheld the constitutionality of a state gay marriage ban in recent memory by the way? They seem to be overturned them pretty consistently.
hashtagsarestupidAFAIK all lower courts have overturned bans when presented to them and so far all appeals courts have upheld the overturnings. Which, if it goes to the SC and they uphold the bans means that they will be spitting in the face of every single lower court decision something I'm sure Scalia, Alito and Thomas will have no problem doing, less sure on Roberts and i really doubt Kennedy will.

LGBT shelter is trying to open up in Arkansas!!!
They're trying to secure donations and funding, but if they can open this will be the only LGBT focused shelter in the state of Arkansas!
I just found out about this place, so wish I were a millionaire so I could just write a check and get it done.

I'll be glad when all the false dichotomies are gone. Not all Republicans are conservative, homophobic church-and-state-combiners.
And not all Democrats are liberal, homophilic church-and-state-separators. ;p
