What has been done can be undone.
A few years from now, lampo will be making the same arguments in favor of pedophilia and bestiality.
Once marriage is no longer restricted to one man and one woman, there can be no legal limitations on it at all that will not be found unconstitutional.
Thus, the institution will be destroyed and with it our society.
That 2% of the population has succeeded in foisting this on the other 98% is nothing short of astounding.
Because of this crap America will soon be irrelevant in the eyes of God.
Consider that a handful of judges have imposed fag marriage on what are supposed to be fifty free, self-governing republics.
God punishes national sins with national calamities.
History shows legalized gay marriage and the acceptance of homosexuality in society in general will destroy our nation. First comes moral collapse then comes the judgment of that nation.
and certainly we are beyond trying to protect the gene pool. A marriage license is a civil document and is not, nor can it be, based upon any particular faith. Same-sex couples are a morally disliked minority and the constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriages is driven by animus rather than a rational basis. This violates the U.S. Constitution.Heh. Just wow. Did this cretin overturn laws against intrafamily marriage? "we are beyond trying to protect the gene pool."
And being opposed is based on aniumus, so being opposed is unconstitutional. To borrow the author's characterization, "How eloquent."
The arguments like procreation isn’t a prerequisite is about as assinine as you can get, since the whole premise of marriage was designed to join people together to form strong families and GROW communities!!
The same argument can be made AGAINST homosexual-marriage: love is not a prerequisite for marriage otherwise we wouldn’t allow for easy annulments and quick easier divorces!
The crazy, far reaching arguments will open the door for people to marry their parents and siblings - since procreation isn’t a component anymore!!
The Pandora’s box with which these idiots are toying is going to destroy not only the moral fabric of America but also the financial future as well!! You think American money is tied up in the elites today, wait until families can hide and shift their fortunes from generation to generation a-la Royal families!
The progs are fond of asking, “What would Jesus do?”. Do they really believe that Jesus would be “pro-choice”, and approve of “gay” “marriage”?
If conservatives don’t embrace the inevitable …Marxists have been saying that for how many years now? About 166 years. Only tyrants demand that people “embrace the inevitable” which is not.
>> the inevitable
So now it’s taxes, sodomy, and death...
Gay marriage will destroy the United States.
Government Marriage is not the same by definition as Biblical Marriage. Therefore, there should be a differentiation of spelling to convey which marriage is in effect. Both may have the same rights for Government benefits, but one is sanctioned by God's Word and the other by Government which either replaces God or copies another Law of Old for the socialist masses.
oh please its not just about gay marriage. The gay mafia revealled their intolerance to the 1st amendment with their opposition to Chick fil a and Phil Robertson.
After gay marriage they’ll go after Christians then Christian churches until all are in group think.
“And yet the Christian Right, or at least most of its self-proclaimed leaders, just won’t let it go”
How dare they. And who would have thought it. You know, when Christians overseas have elected to die rather than renounce their faith. Who would expect these people to be so resistant.
The only way this destroys the GOP is if they listen to this creepy looking agenda pimp.
I do not want to be relevant. I want to be right where God is. God is not where sin is, including and especially my own.
The GOP isn’t the only thing it is destroying. More importantly, it’s destroying America.
I want to say upfront that this is not an endorsement of gay marriage, just something I noticed a few weeks back.
Patty Murray, who is about as dumb as a pile of rocks but who is also by virtue of seniority the Chair of the Senate Budget Committee, put up a proposal to rein in the marriage penalty.
The reason is that the a big wave of newly married gays are either experiencing or about to experience the marriage penalty, and the Dems are trying to get ahead of being held to account for it ...
Let’s see, 5000 years of human civilization versus 10 years of public delusion. My bet’s on biological reality. Ask the ancient Greeks and Romans how it all worked out for them.
One trick pony...
June 13, 2012
David Lampo, a longtime activist with the Virginia chapter of Log Cabin Republicans (LCR) and publications director at the libertarian Cato Institute, is author of a new book, A Fundamental Freedom: Why Republicans, Conservatives, and Libertarians Should Support Gay Rights, scheduled to be released on June 16 by Rowman & Littlefield.
Lampo spoke to the Charlottesville Libertarian Examiner about the book at the 2012 Capital Pride festival on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, where he was promoting the book at the LCR information table.
He describes his book, A Fundamental Freedom, as “a primer about gay rights for Republicans [and] all right-of-center voters.”
GOP’s ‘bad reputation’
The Republican party, he explained, “has a bad reputation regarding gay rights and I thought it was time that somebody try to explain the concept and the philosophy behind [gay issues] from someone who shares their basic, fundamental political values.”
He felt it was important that “rather than liberals or leftists preaching at them about gay rights from the Left, I thought that somebody on the Right, specifically [someone] with a libertarian perspective, should address the issue with them.”
