Tom Ervin: Taxpayers Shouldn’t Defend Gay Marriage Ban

DEMOCRAT VINCENT SHEHEEN REFUSES TO TAKE A POSITION ON THE ISSUE Self-styled “Independent Republican” Tom Ervin – a petition candidate for governor of South Carolina – is the latest candidate for elected office in the socially conservative Palmetto State to weigh in on the same sex marriage issue. “Government does…

DEMOCRAT VINCENT SHEHEEN REFUSES TO TAKE A POSITION ON THE ISSUE

Self-styled “Independent Republican” Tom Ervin – a petition candidate for governor of South Carolina – is the latest candidate for elected office in the socially conservative Palmetto State to weigh in on the same sex marriage issue.

“Government does not belong in the bedroom,” the former judge and lawmaker from the Upstate said.  “My personal faith affirms that marriage is between a man and a woman but under our Constitution, people in this country are afforded equal protection under our laws.  This means that anyone should be free to marry the person they love. Government should not be in the bedroom, but it should also not be in the church.  Individual churches should be allowed to decide which marriage ceremonies they want to perform.”

We agree … and have argued as much for years.

“Marriage – as we’ve noted ad nauseam  in the past – ought to be the exclusive purview of local congregations,” we wrote last spring. “Gay or straight – in no instance should government (federal, state or local) ban congregations from marrying whomever they want. But similarly in no instance should government (federal, state or local) compel these congregations to marry couples against their will.  In other words, government should have nothing whatsoever to do with marriage .

In addition to stating his views on the subject, Ervin followed another petition candidate – Thomas Ravenel – in urging the state to suspend any further legal defense of South Carolina’s 2006 gay marriage ban.

In light of this week’s decision by the Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to strike down Virginia’s gay marriage ban, Ervin said such a defense would be “a waste of taxpayer dollars.”

Again, we agree …

S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley offered a tepid defense of the state’s gay marriage ban – which passed in 2006 via a constitutional amendment with nearly 80 percent of the public supporting it.

More recent polls show 52.2 percent of South Carolinians opposing gay marriage compared to 38.5 percent who support it.

“This administration will continue to uphold the will of the people,” Haley’s office said in a statement responding to the ruling. “Ultimately, the U.S. Supreme Court will decide this issue, and until that time, South Carolina will continue to be governed by the laws of our state.”

Democrat Vincent Sheheen enraged gay voters by refusing to take a position on the issue, trotting out his spokesman to say the campaign would “monitor the court’s proceedings as the process continues to move forward.”

“Vincent Sheheen has once again shown the LGBT citizens of South Carolina that he doesn’t care about getting their votes,” columnist Chris Haire of The (Charleston, S.C.) City Paper  wrote.  “What a coward. But more importantly, what an idiot.”

According to Haire, Sheheen is blind to “demographic shifts in South Carolina and across the nation.”

“If the rise of more libertarian-leaning politicians and political activists in the Palmetto State doesn’t signal a shift to social liberalism, I don’t know what else does,” Haire noted.

We agree …

Independent candidates like Ravenel and Ervin are on the right side of this issue … ideologically and politically.

COLUMBIA,
SC (WIS) – Many child advocates and lawmakers are questioning just how
much oversight home daycares receive after two Upstate infants died
within six months of each other this year. The recently embattled Department of Social Services is the agency in charge of licensing and registering all daycares in South Carolina. WIS’ investigation discovered that knowing the place where your child is
receiving care is left up to parents to get the facility’s full history. “They
don’t search your home, and they don’t search anything,” Martin said.
“I could be running a meth lab in my basement and have a childcare
center, and they wouldn’t know it.”

That gives him and the ugly old lady plenty of room to advocate bizarre and delusional opinions as faux Christians. Tonight was supporting state sponsored gay marriage. Tomorrow? Partial-Birth abortion?

Pelosi says Hamas is a ‘humanitarian’ organization. Ervin says he is a Christian , pro-life and a Republican.

The sad thing is Blues, that so many of these people believe that gays choose their sexual preference. They can no more choose to be straight, than I could choose to be gay (other than my usual lesbian tendencies).

A lesbian friend made a very good point years ago when she asked if anyone really believed that she would actually choose to be shunned by friends, family, co-workers, and others and deal with all the shit she received, because of her orientation. They don’t choose this, it is who they are and what they are born with.

CorruptionInColumbia July 30, 2014 at 1:21 pm

Jackie (presuming you are straight), if you woke up tomorrow and the new “normal” was that we are all gay, could you stop liking women and want a man because it was the norm? I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t. I don’t care how much preaching, discrimination, or whatever else, society dished out, I could not quit liking women and be attracted to men.

Imagine if you were born with whatever it is that causes one to be wired to like their own sex instead of the opposite. Do you really believe it is as simple as choosing one over the other?

It is not as simple as preferring one color of car over another, one brand of outerwear over another, or similar.

Jackie Chiles July 30, 2014 at 1:27 pm

I don’t really have time to address your post in depth right now, but my underlying point is you, and Mary and Myrtle Martha seem to have a naive belief that nobody would ever choose to do something unpopular, dangerous, anti-social, etc. People choose to do dangerous, taboo, unpopular stuff all the time- doesn’t mean they were born that way.

it is what it is July 30, 2014 at 4:02 pm

But that so called aberrant behavior (Goth etc) could be oppositional defiance of the teen years, or in some cases could also have its roots in genetics or a chemical brain dysfunction too…. Just a milder form of an Autism or a bipolar disorder or skizophrenia. The latest science says homosexuality appears to be due to some faulty hormonal shutoff sequences of the opposing sex parent’s genetic material during a crucial period of fetal development. So life would be simpler for all concerned if God made more guarantees about birth outcomes.

Jackie Chiles July 30, 2014 at 4:10 pm

Kind of like how recent research has shown criminal behavior to be a brain abnormality and, therefore, many criminals may not actually have chosen to commit their crimes?

It appears to me Ervin is the true conservative in this race.
He appears to want to govern by the laws of the land and adhere to the Constitution!
All Liberatarians, true Conservatives, Tea Partiers,Constitutional Conservatives should definately agree and see the logic in this!
Government should be limited to the Constitution and govern by it and the limit it sets. Not doing so, is why we have agencies with responsibilites outside what government should do and why budgets are out pacing the growth of the economy and the ability of the taxpayer to fund. This would limit the growth of government which is OUT of control and bankrupting us all!
What has Haley done to slow govt. growth? Nothing!

You are a true Beaver connoisseur. I find they are similar to wines in their scope & complexity, but where the similarities start, they abruptly end when it comes to age.

For example, a young beaver need not be decanted, opposite to young wine…whereas a well aged beaver usually needs some time in the air before it’s full aroma & complexity can be fully enjoyed, especially with some head cheese and classical music.

The fundamental flaw is that a religious ceremony is not a legal state of marriage. Marriage is a legal contract. It may be accompanied by a religious ceremony but it doesn’t have to be, especially since marriage was a legal contract before any of today’s churches were founded. Marriage pre-dates Christianity as a legal institution.

It was the church which tried to take a legal contract and force it into being a religious one, not the other way around. But the Founders never saw marriage as having to be religious. Marriages were performed by judges right from the start and ministers could act on behalf of the government, but without the legal requirements being filled no religious ceremony made people married.

The churches should have no saw over a legal contract. Giving “marriage” to the churches is like making all labor contracts dependent on trade unions.

Hundreds of benefits, including social security and most pension payments, are legally tied to the term “marriage.” The government, federal and state, could do a find-and-replace change of the word “marriage” with the word “civil union” and then all benefits and privileges and responsibilities would switch to civil unions. But I don’t think that most of the country’s married people would appreciate suddenly losing all those rights. So there would also have to be a change in the paperwork and records for millions of people to designate them “in a civil union” instead of “married.” But of course before that could happen, every state would have to make civil unions legal. All this would be hugely time-consuming and cost enormous amounts of money. It would be a lot simpler and cheaper if churches would just start calling what they do “Holy Matrimony,” instead of insisting on using the same word that civil legal contracts use (“marriage”) and then complaining about the word being the same for both.

tomstickler July 30, 2014 at 9:56 am

Many opponents of “gay marriage” regard a marriage license as merely a “license” to avoid violating anti-fornication laws, rather than as a valid, state-sanctioned contract between two individuals committing them to certain obligations and granting certain rights and benefits.
