Out of five key Supreme Court rulings, Obergefell v. Hodges was selected to be evaluated in this piece. The ban on same sex marriage is the law being challenged in the case. According to the case study, “groups of same-sex couples sued their relevant state agencies in Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and Tennessee to challenge the constitutionality of those states' bans on same-sex marriage…” (Oyez, 2014). In detail, by the states restricting same-sex marriages, they have breached constitutional rights

minorities come to pass. Of all the groups mentioned, the one that has made a more recent stride is the LGTB community, which recently has recently obtained the right to marry in every state thanks to the Obergefell v. Hodges case. Historical Timeline: The decision in the Obergefell v. Hodges case is a monumental victory considering the poor treatment of the members of this minority.

Hodges has made big waves. This landmark case decided that gay marriage cannot be made illegal. This verdict shocked and disgusted many while just as many cheered for the victory they had been fighting for, for so long. The fight for gays to be able to marry has been a long road and culminated at this Supreme Court

In Obergefell v. Hodges, the United States Supreme Court held that same sex couples can now exercise the fundamental right of marriage nationwide. Justice Kennedy reached this result by redefining what marriage is. James Obergefell and John Arthur married in Maryland in 2013. They lived in Ohio, which did not recognize same sex marriage. When John Arthur was diagnosed with ALS, the couple sued to have Obergefell’s name placed on the death certificate as a surviving spouse. The U.S. District Court

In the aftermath of Obergefell vs Hodges case, pastors and church members fear a nightmare scenario that will allow government action and lawsuits to force them to perform a same-sex marriage. With same-sex marriage now recognized as a constitutional right, we inevitably expect these future lawsuits that will attack the churches' core fundamental beliefs and First Amendment rights. Pastors have reached out to church insurance companies in hopes of coverage. However, at least one of these companies

Parr at Cheyne Row Harry Parr took over the lease at 14A Cheyne Row in March 1914, when the sculptor Ernest George Gillick (1874-1951) and famous for the Guinness beer adverts, and his wife the sculptor Mrs Mary Gaskell Gillick (1881-1956) vacated the studio. The entrance to the studio was a door inset into the double stable doors (see Fig. 22). An inset brass plate on the door named the five artists. The entrance, just wide enough to drive a dust cart through it, was some fifteen yards long ending

Charles B. Hodge, Jr., is a prolific writer and a minister of the Church of Christ. He closes each chapter of The Agony & Glory of the Cross with “The Cross…there is no other way!” Thus, I have taken Reverend Hodge’s declaration for the title of this review. He further explains his thesis of the importance of the cross: “Jesus could not save Himself and still be our Savior. There is no way but the cross.” The unique approach to teaching the New Testament – and Christs’ journey to Calvary – requires

Although many may simply think of the 2015 Supreme Court case of Obergefell v. Hodges when they think of what created marriage equality, the history is far more complex. The divisive struggle for the fundamental right to marry is full of many changes and continuities over time. Moreover, many of the strategies implemented largely parallel those of the African American civil rights movement. Both marked hard fought struggles for basic rights afforded others but excluded from minority groups, simply

Obergefell v. Hodges was a case where quite a few same sex couples went to court because their state refused to acknowledge their marriage from other states. It was raised from lower courts to the supreme court because their rights kept being denied. When the supreme court looked at it the issue was if the 14th amendment can force states to recognize same sex marriages from other states. It was a five to four vote ruling that their marriages must be recognized due to the due process clause which
