This following hub was my response to a blog, that says that the Morjority has voted against Gay marriage, and that the courts should not oppose the voice of the people.

Gay Marriage should be a federal Mandate, and not left up to state voting.   The United States way of life is built on the right to Vote.   In most cases I would agree with this.  But in the case of legalizing Gay Marriage, this should not be left up to popular opinion.   I base my logic and argument on the example that our forefathers have set in other civil right issues.  

“The rule of the majority shall never overrule the right of the Minority!”

That is why African Americans are no longer slaves, and Women have the right to vote.  If we had continue to let the states decide this civil rights issues base on the feelings of the majority we would not be the Great Nation that we are today!   The greatest gift God gave mankind was the gift of freewill, and if someone wants to use their freewill to marry someone of the same gender, that is their God Given Right and Hopefully one day their American Right as well.
