Answer from Orly:
I respect your opinion on the issue. I should say, though, that taxation and army service are different from marriage. People can be granted tax benefits for same sex unions, also, gays were allowed to serve in the military before legalization of the same sex marriage. I believe, people are more open and accepting on these two issues. In terms of morality I simply do not know. We do not have answers yet: why about 2% of the population have same sex attractions? Is it a variation of norm, is it a psychological issue, is it an influence of the environment? So far nobody found a “gay gene”. Twins studies show that there is no genetic predisposition. I guess, many in the society struggle to answer the question: why is it happening? is it a part of the norm?
Many decided that until they know what it is, they are not ready to codify it as marriage and this is the reason, why only a handful of states voted to allow gay and lesbian marriage. I believe that people want more answers before they are ready to vote “yes” on gay marriage. When obnoxious federal judges shove gay marriage down people’s throats after most states voted “no” time and again on gay marriage, people get angry and combatant not only against gay and lesbian couples, but also against elitist judges, who substituted the will of the people with their own thinking, their fad of political correctness. This is simply not the way to go.
Since the Supreme Court ruled in DOMA that gay marriage is a state issue, it should not be up to the federal courts to overturn the state bans on the gay marriage. This constitutes a usurpation of the state power guaranteed to the states in the 10th amendment and guaranteed to the people in the 9th amendment.
I respect the decision of the people of NY, Vermont and MA to allow gay marriage. They voted for it and so be it, this is their choice. With this being said, I also respect the decision of people in other states to define the marriage as a union between one man and one woman. If gay and lesbian community wants to change this, they need to do it the right way, by placing a proposition on the ballot, arguing the case to the people and changing the mind of the public, doing it legally, not by seeking one gay federal judge in California, who substituted the state law with his own opinion and started the snowball of cookie cutter decisions by politically correct robot judges, who have zero respect for the people’s rights, zero respect for the legislative process, zero respect for elections, zero respect for the state rights and for the separation of powers.
It is interesting that the same federal judges allowed Obama with a flagrantly stolen CT Social Security number and all fabricated IDs to sit in the WH and cause so much damage to this nation. Many judges argued that they do not want to overturn the elections, however they are perfectly ready and eager to overturn the elections on the issue of the gay and lesbian marriages. This shows that these  judges as simply lacking integrity.
This issue is so raw in many states, that it might lead to some states seceding, as the states are already fed up with 18 trillion debt, half of which was incurred in the last 6 years by Obama, IRS scandals, shipping all of the jobs abroad, open borders and flooding of the nation with millions of illegals. This issue might end up being the last drop.
