SCOTUS decision on DOMA, gay marriage could be announced soon
(RNN) – The highly anticipated U.S. Supreme Court rulings on the Defense of Marriage Act and the constitutionality of California's Proposition 8 may come by the end of the week, at the earliest...The arguments and subsequent decisions will be based on two high-profile cases - Hollingsworth v. Perry, which argues Proposition 8 violates the Equal Protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment; and United States v. Windsor, which takes to task the term "marriage" in DOMA. Hearings on the arguments for the two cases took place March 26 and 27.
The nine Supreme Court justices have two major decisions to make in each case: they can either decide to rule or not to rule. Each step has specific implications for each case...In Hollingsworth v. Perry, the court can make one of several decisions: dismiss the petition of Prop. 8 supporters for lack of appellate standing, uphold the proposition or three variations of striking the ruling down.
One decision could decide it all – the court could decide to declare that same-sex marriage is legal or illegal nationwide. Another decision the court could make is not making a decision at all, choosing to leave it up to the states as their issue to handle.
The justices, who have been described as "cautious and conservative," are unlikely to make a sweeping ruling that will have a lasting impact on women's and civil rights, said one expert..."I think it's going to be an incremental move, whatever it is," Houston attorney Gary Poland told USA Today. "This court doesn't want to be in the position of making political decisions for the country."
The last public session of the nation's highest court is scheduled on June 24, the final day a decision could be made on these cases.

Be prepared in your heart and mind real Christian, it won't take the homosexual-agendites long to get it going here after June. Hold fast to the Word of God.
Realistically speaking, at this point, the 'gay' battle is over. The homosexuals have stormed the castle and taken over. They have the courts, regardless of how far SCOTUS goes at this juncture, they have the White House, they have the military, they have Hollywood, which goes without saying, they have professional sports, they have the Boy Scouts, they have the educational institutions, and they've now even got the doors wedged in all the churches...
Whether it's "an incremental move" or they go for the whole ball-o-wax now we'll know soon. Either way though, whether this week or next year, they will get it to the same finish point - just like how it is in Canada [see above] where it is now a "hate crime" to oppose in writing or speech.
