Some People Just Can't Decide

Here is an odd court ruling from Texas: gay couples married in other states can't get divorced locally because, according to Texas, they weren't really married. From a practical standpoint, if Texas doesn't want them to be married and they don't want to be married, divorce seems like a win-win.

Of course, if the court really wants to uphold the traditional definition of marriage, then nobody in Texas gets a divorce without the Pope's says so. How many of these people are willing to go the distance with their own logic? Do opponents of gay marriage want to give up their right to a no-fault divorce? Do they want their sisters and daughters to give up the right to chose when they have kids? Or to hold a job, or to own property? Where do we make our stand?
