Support traditional marriage: don't let courts define it

Marriage began as a religious concept, but now the courts have decided that its definition is up to them rather than the people. If this trend continues, how long will it be before our churches can no longer act according to their beliefs on marriage? Cory Booker implied that those who believe in traditional marriage are akin to the segregationists who tried to keep Jackie Robinson from playing baseball. Is that what it has come to--a Senator who compares believing in traditional marriage with racism? Source: 2014 Senate campaign website, Bell2014.com, "Issues" , May 2, 2014
