Re "California's Ban on Gay Marriage Is Struck Down" (front page, Aug. 5):
I'm disappointed, but not surprised, that a federal district court judge, Vaughn R. Walker, has overturned California's Proposition 8.
It's sad that certain judges, including Judge Walker, apparently disregard divine and natural law when making a decision on important moral matters that affect the common good. Same-sex "marriage" is contrary to divine and natural law and thus should be prohibited by human law as well.

How it went to pieces all at once,--
All at once, and nothing first,--
Just as bubbles do when they burst.
