Popular & political support for something is a great reason for legislative change. It's not a very good basis for Supreme Court decisions. Please don't have the courts invent a right to marry which doesn't exist in the Constitution.

I can't think of a compelling reason to support homosexual marriage personally- but if enough people disagree with me (which looks to be the case), they can change the laws. But don't do it by having the courts abuse the Constitution- it has been tortured enough.
