The point that seems to be missed in the furor over "gays should marry" vs. "gays shouldn't marry" is that the court rightly decided that this is not an issue for the courts, but should be decided in the State Legislature.

There was a dissenting judge who didn't see it that way. If the State Legislature passed a law authorizing same sex marriages and the Constitutionality of that law were to be challenged up to the Court of Appeals, would the Court refuse to hear the case citing it's previous decision that the Legislature has the final word on the issue? Such an acid test might just reveal that today's court was overly content with the status quo.
