Thank you capt obvious. Except when some of these decisions are passed, they inherently carve out groups as a protected class over another.

What group rights?  The court just said that any two consenting adults can get married.

Soooo. That means the LGBTQ is not a "GROUP"? What is it, then?

And yes, I'm ready for your spin!

People. Just like Christians, whites, men.... etc. What rights have LGBT been granted that other people do not have?
 
Really?

Who in America is rounding up and killing Christians?

Learn thy history, sir. It's a real-life example of the adage on dropping a frog into boiling water vs. turning up the heat gradually.

Germany didn't start by rounding up the Jews. They started in 1933 by marginalizing and isolating them. The first concrete steps by the government were those taken to restrict their rights to live as their religion dictated, all in the name of being for the greater public good, and aided by a compliant media.

Fortunately, we have checks and balances that Germany didn't have, but that won't stop public shaming, societal marginalizing and isolation from taking place.
 
Bottom line is if two gay people want to be married how does it effect you?

It doesn't, let them enjoy the same as everyone else.

You sit there and imply how religions should impose their beliefs on you , while imposing yours and the lgbt's beliefs on me, using government force.
Believe what you want but, in the end there will be only one judge and his beliefs will be the only one that matters!

Personally I think marginalizing and shaming the vocal minority who are against equality for all is a good thing.  
 
Perhaps it is you who needs to read up on history.  The laws and decrees had nothing to do with religious doctrine but to restrict public access by Jews.

For your read hearing to have any validity whatsoever you would have to have an example of at least one law in the US that has restricted Christians in any way shape or form to participate in the public community much less the hundreds of such laws that the Nazis imposed on all non-aryans in Germany.

Allowing people to get married is no more imposing beliefs on you than allow blacks to have equality was forcing beliefs on people.  
 
No one is forcing you to believe or like anything.  Two people getting married has absolutely no affect on your life.  Two people getting divorced has absolutely no affect on your life.  A black and a white person getting married has absolutely no affect on your life.
 
I could not care less about your judgement day.  Your belief has absolutely no affect on my life and you are free to believe as you choose.
