Ireland has happy marriage and I'm ok with that

Recently, Ireland voted to allow happy marriage nation wide.

While as a Catholic I'm opposed to it, I told my dad that I fully supported Ireland. He was rather taken aback.

My answer was simple. "They voted for it. They didn't have some liberal judges force it down their throat AGAINST the will of the voters."

I don't want to get high and mighty, but I can separate my own convictions from the will of the people.

Thing is, the people in the US shoot it down every time it comes up.

Forget reforming the electoral college, we need to hold judges accountable...[}:)]

    Jonk, I completely agree with you. I am personally unhappy with Irelands decision but it was THEIR decision to make.

    This is so much better than our method of voting on issues. The people vote, taking a stand on an issue, the people have spoken!! Than a non-elected judge tells us all to kiss the backside of his robe, telling us our vote is meaningless!!

    FWIW, I agree, Jonk. None of my business.
