      I thought the constitution was a living document and therefore changes with time? I've heard that said over and over lately by certain powers in DC.

        Kind of absurd in a way that people feel compelled to have an opinion about every issue. I'm not opposed to same sex marriage, neither am I in favor of it. It's not really my business one way or the other. heterosexual marriage is in big trouble and i'd rather see energy and education directed toward strengthening the institution of the family, however it is constituted.

            Nice to see people are so level-headed about this.

            Fallout from the Supreme Court's DOMA ruling has been on display on the floor of the Pennsylvania House, where on Thursday an openly gay state representative asked colleagues to reprimand a member who had prevented him from speaking about the case.

            Rep. Brian Sims, a Philadelphia Democrat, had attempted to address the House on Wednesday under "unanimous consent," but at least one member objected.

            On Thursday, Sims, the first openly gay member elected to the House, stood under a different parliamentary rule to read from an interview Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, the conservative Republican from Cranberry, had given about the episode.

            "I did not believe that as a member of that body that I should allow someone to make comments such as he was preparing to make that ultimately were just open rebellion against what the word of God has said, what God has said, and just open rebellion against God's law," Metcalfe had told WHYY of Philadelphia.

              Why is it that whenever some politician claims to know the will of God, 99% of the time they're a conservative Republican? The arrogance of these people is stunning.

                You left out the best line from the article.

Mind you I'm not a lawyer. I don't like playing those games though because I'm not sure where you draw the line.
                  There would probably have to be a statute in the state, similar to this one. https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/?id=363a.17
                  That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                    Oh look, ability to create a civil union isn't enough, now they want vindication and to persecute the heterosexual. The cycle starts all over again.

                      Classic politician being petty. Because "God's law" is how the United States of America is run.

                        Well, there probably isn't free speech allowed on the House floor within PA. If theirs is set up similar to those in other states, or the US House of Reps, anything said on the floor requires a process.

                        While this Metcalf guy strikes me as the Christian version of those Muslims that push for Sharia law, the little bits in that article appear to be Metcalf making correct use of PA House procedure for, IMO, the wrong reasons.

                          Even then, as much as one person's free speech is protected by the 1st amendment, his speech is protected from being trumped by the 9th amendment.

                                How about the demand for reprimand?
