That view of the mountains behind the lake in Valley of the Ten Peaks is known as the Twenty Dollar View, as Moraine Lake was featured on the reverse side of the 1969 and 1979 issues of the Canadian twenty dollar bill.

Only section 3 of DOMA was ruled unconstitional.

Section 2. Powers reserved to the states No State, territory, or possession of the United States, or Indian tribe, shall be required to give effect to any public act, record, or judicial proceeding of any other State, territory, possession, or tribe respecting a relationship between persons of the same sex that is treated as a marriage under the laws of such other State, territory, possession, or tribe, or a right or claim arising from such relationship.
Section 3. Definition of marriage In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word 'marriage' means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word 'spouse' refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.

Because of the full faith and credit clause, section 2 is facially constitutional and nobody is challenging it.

Of course he wasn't; Christians follow the teachings of Jesus, so why is this relevant?

True, but consider what Jesus said about the Sabbath:

23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. 24 The Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” 25 He answered, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 26 In the days of Abiathar the high priest, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.” 27 Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

The takeaway from that, to me anyway, is that laws shouldn't be followed simply because they are the law. I'm not a Christian myself, but it seems entirely reasonable for someone to call themselves Christian and not have a problem with homosexuality or gay marriage.

Christianity isn't black and white. Jesus never talked about homosexuality.

Every black man has the same right to marry a black woman. Every white woman has the same right to marry any white man. A black man doesn't have the right to marry a white woman just like a white man doesnt have the right to marry a white woman. So under this logic, aren't white and black people treated equally?

Did he write the product description too? I certainly read this bit in Shatner's voice.

I don't think it's suggesting all military bases are equal. I don't think the military in Japan goes around ransacking or patrolling neighbourhoods, for example.
