The government does not approve or deny marriages. They do not issue licenses or anything else. The Basic Law bars the government from anything to do with marriage, that includes the courts
2. Secular Israel is a disgrace and shame to the world.
Mark Simon   (11.01.15)
Then they expect the G-d of Israel to protect them from Arab terrorism.
3. 2sick new laws:Immoral marriage & cancelling parents' rights
Barry   (11.01.15)
I'm trying to figure out which new law is more mentally corrupt? Legalizing immoral marriage or taking away parents' rights as legal guardians over their own children!!!! The evil High Court (if you can call it that) "prides" themselves with "this law would make Israel the first country in the world to take away parents' rights as legal guardians of their own children." If this is not evil, what is? Is the High Court's plans to kidnap Jewish children once again and give them to those immoral marriage partners?
4. The only honest part of gays is
Marilyn ,   Tel Aviv   (11.02.15)
the rainbow. How perfectly fitting for their immoral behavior just like at the time of Noah when the Flood destroyed the world and Gd's promise using a rainbow.

Can't they just be happy living together, and get all their rights like a married couple. At least that way if they want to part from each other they would not need to get a Get. But if it is the case and marriage is the only thing that will make them happy "gay gazinta hate" so be it, they would go abroad and do it any way at least we can save them the airfare and save them from leaving the country, I mean we are talking about a Jew and a Jew is a Jew no matter what feeling he may have. And just want to let you know I am modern orthodox with an open mind.
6. Court cannot make laws, only rule on them
Scott ,   Ramat Gan   (11.02.15)
The US Supreme Court was ruling on same sex marriage laws in states. The High Court, which has judge that are not democratically elected has no authority to create laws.
7. At least there's one Arab on the supreme court
David ,   New york   (11.02.15)
One person who won't vote for this. The rest are left wing secularists and would be happy with people marrying horses (although they might object for the horse's welfare)
8. I hope it passes!!
Gracey ,   Tel Aviv   (11.01.15)
It's what separates us from Iran and other countries where gays are slaughtered. The Gay community have just as much right as human beings to get married, as straight folk. So suck it up you small-minded losers!!! And I'm a straight woman.
9. How about us, lowly heterosexuals bypassing the Black Mafia?

10. Celebrate Perversity
Rick ,   Houston, TX   (11.02.15)
There's nothing "gay" about homosexuality. The initials "GLBT" are nothing more than an acronym to make an abnormality seem normal and acceptable. Two people of the same sex cannot consummate a relationship and no one born a man can become a woman or a woman a man.

Marriage is not a right period. There is no such right in the world. The government does not block or grant marriages - they are not allowed to have anything to do with marriage. So the courts must reject this because it is not a government function
