    Mark, please understand my intrigue is not with the social aspects of which I care not. I side with Amazon's succinct statement of, "If you don't want to have a gay marriage; don't have one." I was curious from the beginning about; 1) the legal aspects of bypassing congress, 2) going straight to SCOTUS, 3) its affect on the 10th amendment and, 4) if their ruling could be abrogated. EDIT: Clean up grammar. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    So, I too had the same question. And, I began to wonder about those States that are not issuing gay marriage certificates. Turns out that SCOTUS can have its ruling challenged by congress... Hence, the stall tactics by some States. http://www.wnd.com/2015/06/lawmaker-congress-can-halt-same-sex-marriage-in-tracks/ On another note; the following article addresses religious institutions and even those universities that can discriminate against gender: http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/06/26/how-a-supreme-court-decision-for-gay-marriage-would-affect-religious-institutions/ In summary, I "believe" the battle not over; but some battles are lost before starting.

    To you both: Thank you for the correction. Shame on me for not delving further as I received it from a person who usually verifies such things. http://www.thinkinghousewife.com/wp/2015/06/an-embarrassment-for-the-baltimore-sun/ Mea Culpa Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    What in the name of God have those two videos got to do with the article? ETA: I asked for [On Topic] twice. Two African-American women having a slugfest is not "On Topic." Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    This should make for some interesting conversation. Not wishing to infer any bias; I'll wait for some responses and then tell you my thoughts on the article.

    You don't spend $5,000 on an engagement ring.... stay around $1,200 That'll leave you another $3,500 dollar for the wedding band. If you can get the whole set for 5K and give her the engagement ring... and then the wedding band when the day happens.

    Given their history of mission success.. the school program is what makes them successful. I respectfully disagree. If many men can make it each year; you don't change the standards - because the missions sure aren't going to change. You know how many men either flunk or quit? It's because they too - did not meet the standard. I have no issues with any woman who can pass the program. But, changing the program will only dilute the requirements to be mission successful. It's not another social experiment to be manipulating the standards. If they can make the existing standard; then God Bless.

    The requirements have changed since WWII - They've gotten harder since Vietnam. Long before women were a factor for consideration. What gets most volunteers of which there is little preparation for is the lack of sleep and food with a very high energy output.
