T. D. Jakes Argument

On June 26, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court removed the ban on same-sex marriage nationwide. On July 15, 2015, Kenneth Jost published an article named “Will there be more gains after marriage ruling?” In this article, Jost discusses the viewpoints of the general public and argues that there may still be a struggle to gain full rights and respect for lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, and transgender (LGBT) people. The article covers the reaction of the public on June 26, along with politicians stand-points on the subject, and the Caitlyn Jenner controversy. Jost’s main argument is that LGBT people are not being protected by the government, even though they have gained the right to marry.

A major victory was won by the LGBT community when the Supreme Court ruled that same-sex marriage was legal on June 26th of 2015 across all of the United States. This ruling effectively states that any state-law restricting marriage to male-female is unconstitutional. This had been a fight since the 1970s when the issues of same-sex marriage first began to gain steam. Over the years, various states have legalised same-sex marriage to certain degrees, however it wasn’t until after 3 decades that the issue was finally acknowledged on a national level. This change furthers the ideology of freedom and equality of the american constitution and will invoke the betterment of

The year is 2015 and I can’t imagine not having the freedom I do today. Marriage equality is a very recent topic in history. It wasn’t very long ago that laws prohibited the marriage of same-sex couples. I have decided to investigate the history of marriage equality and the organizations that helped make the dream come true. In order to fully understand the changes that occurred, and to comprehend the level of discrimination that was felt in the homosexual culture, one must first understand the history of the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer) community. The harsh history of the LGBTQ community, and discrimination that was imposed on them and the organizations that strived to advocate for the LGBTQ community on a local, regional and national level is what eventually lead to the Supreme Court ruling on June 26th, 2015, stating that states cannot ban same-sex marriage.

In this article, Blinder and Perez-Pena discuss the decision of a county clerk in Kentucky to deny marriage license to a homosexual couple. Two couples later tried to confront her along with numerous journalists. When asked under whose authority she acted she claimed “Under God’s authority” (Blinder and Perez-Pena A1). She claimed that same sex marriage violates her beliefs and thus she will not comply with the ruling of the justices earlier this year. As aresult, the couple took the clerk to court.

On June 26, 2015, the US Supreme Court ruled that the US Constitution guarantees the right for same-sex couples to marry. Many conservative groups do NOT agree with this decision. The gay marriage debate has been simmering for as long as I can remember. The four articles I have selected give information from four different perspectives including that of liberals, conservatives, homosexuals, and orthodox Jews. With so many differing opinions, one can understand why it's been so hard for the nation to come to agree on this issue.

On June 26, 2015, the U.S. Supreme court ruled gay marriage as a constitutional right in all 50 states. This was a tremendous achievement for the LGBT community, it was the beginning of acceptance. Even though the Supreme Court passed this ruling

As of June 26th, 2015 same sex marriage has been legal countrywide in the United States of America.26 Prior to that date, it was legal only in certain states. The decision came from a court ruling that the state-level ban on same sex marriage was unconstitutional. Long before June 2015, US President Barack Obama announced that he stood in support of same sex marriage, something that could not be said of his predecessor George W. Bush.27 In a country where citizens know they have the support of their executive official, it becomes easier to contest unjust laws. Attributing his beliefs to the impartial outlook of his adolescent daughters Obama stated that “at a certain point [he] just concluded that for [him], personally, it is important for [him] to go ahead and affirm that [he] think same-sex couples should be able to get married”.28 The support of a nation’s leader is inevitably crucial to how far a citizen’s petition for justice has to potential to go, and because of this so long as just leaders continue to be put in power, the standing of human rights will undoubtedly

The Supreme Court legalized Same Sex Marriage on June 26, 2015. Same Sex Marriage is all the homosexual people in United States now can legally marry. Homosexual people has hard time with their family, people who didn't come out not dare to tell their family, so they will find some who is hetersexual and marry without telling the truth. Once hetersexual person find out about it or homosexual person sick to live with it , they will be divorce. The article “ 10 reasons why Gay Marriage should be legalized” the article stated “More than 50% of married couples in America get divorced. Allowing gays the opportunity to get married will increase marriage rates because less couples will get divorced due to incompatibility or infertility.” We can see from the evidence that half of people in America get divorced. Once they passed the Same Sex Marriage Law, the situation will become better also the percentage of getting divorced would be decrese. American people rejoice with wild excitement not only because this, it also prove that human has improved. To homesexual people is accomplishment of equal rights. The article “ 10 reasons why Gay Marriage should be legalized” the article stated “In the 50's, interracial marriage was illegal. But now, modern society understands this to be an unjust law that denied equal rights to couples who loved each other.” Mind

In recent years, the debate over same-sex marriage has grown into a nationwide controversy, reverberating into the halls of congress, at the white house, in dozens of state and legislature and courtrooms, and in the rhetoric of election campaigns at both the national and state levels. As the debate rages on, the American religious community remains deeply divided over the issue, and over the morality of homosexuality. The debate has grown from an issue that occasionally arose in a few states to a national and even worldwide controversy.

Our world changes day by day, but we do not realize it until we look back and everything is completely different. Over the years our government had come to many different conclusion on what is best for the nation on the topic of gay marriage before the 2015 court hearing legalizing it. From 1972 to now, from Baker v. Nelson to Obergefell v. Hodges, there have been dozens of court cases. My speech will be focusing on specifically Baker v. Nelson, Baehr v. Lewin, and Obergefell v. Hodges.

Its time for me to share my opinion and perspective regarding the Supreme Court ruling on gay marriages. Forewarning, this post will be long because I have more than just an opinion to express, but rather a story to tell which will enlighten anyone who chooses to read this as to what my true perspective and opinion regarding gay marriages. (and gay people in general as a Christian)

On June 26, 2015, the Supreme Court made it official that same-sex marriage be legal in all fifty states. This is a great advancement for the LGBTQ+ community; however, it does not mean that the Gay Rights movement is over. Every day, queer people still face oppression, and every day, queer people are killed or commit suicide because many straight people cannot accept someone for who they are. This is no way follows the 14th Amendment in the Constitution. In view of the fact that acting in a manner that denies someone equality, I believe that anyone, no matter their sex, race, or religion, who makes impudent comments towards another person because of their sexual orientation must face severe consequences, as essentially, they are violators of the

After the legalization of gay marriage on June 26, granted by the Supreme Court itself, many people on the streets chanted and rose up signs saying “Love Wins.” Truly, such a wondrous display of joy, and triumph of law over all other reasoning is a good demonstration of our laws at work.

As we know, same-sex marriage has been discussed and argued for a long time. Within the controversial topic of gay rights, there’s no area more controversial than same-sex marriage. And all of us ask ourselves if same-sex marriage should be legal or not. But the fact is that we have to start thinking about it as a moral and religious topic. The government shouldn’t legalize the same-sex marriage because the

The issue of same-sex espousement is something of a sultry topic in our country these days. In March, Michigan decided that same-sex espousements were licit, then later the same day, that ruling was stayed, and then determinately, later the same month, a federal appeals court stayed the ruling indefinitely (Egan, 2014).
