http://bluntandcranky.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/federal-judge-to-ohio-yes-i-mean-it-mark-the-mans-husband-as-such-on-his-death-certificate/A second legally-married couple wins the right to be noted as spouses on death certificates. This is friggin' huge.
Snip:
" A while back, two men got married and won the right to be noted as such should one of them pass away. Now a man named Ives has died and the judge just bitch-slapped Ohio AGAIN, telling them to follow the law and note his legally-married husband as his spouse on the death certificate.
Kudos to Judge Black; condolences to Mr. Michener; and brickbats to Ohios fundagelical loons who want to persecute loving couples, just because of the positions in which they both can take a pee."

Since their alleged theology discards the fundamental elements of their alleged faith.
Use it and enjoy.

Ives is currently burning in Hell, as he should. Turn up the heat.

Remember what I said about Fundagelical loons? This one submitted her comment within five minutes, and is an excellent example of a Pauline who thinks shes a Christian: and of why we need equality in America.
