Funny, I just read
The Constitution and can't find a mention of hetrosexual marriage either. Or marriage at all.
So are you going to argue that Hetro-sexual marriage is somehow
implied in that document?
I wouldn't recomend that argument, as it also entails implying that hetrosexual marriage is by some means more favored and deserves special status.
That document does not address mariage, and stating that it is implied by any of the founding documents of the country is bupkiss. Implied isn't on the page, it wasn't written.
The guiding principals we have are what was written down for us by the founding fathers. Not one ever deemed it important enough to write down, otherwise they would have bothered.
We don't know how they would have felt on the issue, so don't bother trying to claim you have any clue what they would have thought or felt.
All we know is the issue was never mentioned, so the issue is now our responsability to address.
