It seems that almost weekly there is another assault on true marriage.
The unrelenting efforts of an activist wing of the homosexual community have succeeded in reframing the issues of the debate and now aim to enforce nothing short of a Cultural Revolution.
They have been joined by eager collaborators in the Judiciary and elected officials who believe they are some kind of new liberators.
Notice the pervasive use of the language of this new Cultural Revolution.
No longer are there any news reports using the word marriage for what it ontologically is, the lifelong union between one man and one woman ordered toward love, the conception and rearing of children, and the formation of family, which is the foundation of society because it is its first vital cell.
Rather, the verbal engineers who are the architects of this Revolution have strategically changed the language and convinced even the unwary to use their new revolutionary vocabulary.
First, from the proponents of this brave new world where marriage is no longer what it is but a redefined word, came the distinction between so called traditional Marriage and all other marriages. That was the most decisively fatal volley in this early verbal skirmish....

Homosexuality is spelled out in Scripture as a sin, and if you really think carefully about it, sodomy is contrary to the natural order. In a created world there is a plan. We have life cycles, weather cycles, seasons, etc. In the human life cycle family is clearly the basic unit for the orderly growth and maintenance of society. Sodomy is a destructive lifestyle for the person and society. And, as you may know, that as much money and effort devoted to find a scientific proof that it is biological and natural, none has been found. We all know some folk who are homosexual, most seem to be good people, but that doesn’t change the fact.
Seems like an unmarried army is heading out to fight the war for marriage
I think the best way to fight this is by enlisting the “first wives club” members.
If gay marriage is okay, then polygamy (which has been around alot longer and accepted in alot more cultures) is okay.
We just need to remind the “first wives club” members (most of whom will be lib feminists) that collecting child support from 3-4 FIRST WIVES will be even more fun than they are having now.

Just another step on the road to Rome..
The battle for true marriage was lost decades ago when divorce lost its stigma and no-fault divorce became the law of the land.
The illusion that the homosexual lifestyle is a normal way of living has been successfully propagated by promoting a “victim” image for homosexual persons, and by the pseudo-science alleging a gay” gene.
Of the reports alleging, or promising soon down the road, a “gay” gene, not a single one has survived scientific peer review. There is no “gay” gene.
On the other hand, the evidence does show that homosexual persons are indeed victims — but overwhelmingly of their own behavior, not that of others.
Typical homosexual behavior includes regular contact with fecal matter from oneself and from sexual partners, tragically reversing several centuries of learning about cleanliness, and thus several centuries of growing lifespan. Homosexual behavior makes no more sense than playing in the toilet.
All available evidence indicates that the lifespan of practicing homosexual persons is drastically shortened by their behavior. No reliable study indicates otherwise. The lifespan topic is taboo among homosexual advocates because the evidence is so damaging to their case.
It is now time to be upfront & explicit about the important social policy advantages provided by marriage to the extent of repealing domestic partner laws. Discrimination is perfectly legal in many, many cases as long as there are very specific & justified social benefits.
Here's a short list off the top of my head: 18 age of majority (contracts, criminal law, etc), 16 yo drivers, under 16 marriage, females barred from front-line combat, 21 yo alcohol, 18 yo cigarette, etc. The list goes on; in each case, there is explicit discrimination codified by law.
Marriage is the foundation of all societies throughout history & the world - from the most high-tech 1st world countries to the deepest, darkest primitive jungles. If we cannot articulate why this is such a critical institution as to bar all other pseudo forms, then we only have ourselves to blame.
Marriage’s days were numbered when everybody thought it was a good idea to have the state issue licenses for what should be a private and/or religious matter. Now it’s just another useful way to classify people when it comes time to share the largesse of the welfare state for the purpose of buying votes.
The prophetic message of this movie haunted me and stayed etched in my mind even until today. Surely nothing like this could possibly happen in the US. But I look with horror at a similar progression of developments over the past few year in the U.S. and around the world. I now see hundreds of Homosexuals flocking to California to force others not involved with their relationship to give credence to, and actively participate in, all the implications it involves. These activists will bring a cascade of lawsuits, IN EVERY STATE (mark my words, a slew of homoactivist groups like HRC have made sure there are couples representing each state to do this with full legal and financial backing from the Homo-lobby) demanding that their "marriage" be honored in each State, effectively contesting DOMA as unconstitutional. I can't honestly see every district federal appellate court sustaining state marriage policy, and one will eventually make it to the US Supreme Court. It's anyone's guess what decision will follow, but considering the Court's past decisions, such as Lawrence and Garner vs. Texas, the outcome is questionable. If the USSC reverses, Homo "marriage" immediately becomes law of the land in all 50 states.
The homo-activist know this, will tell you frankly that this is what will happen, and they will tell you that this is their goal.
A Federal Marriage Amendment must be passed sooner than later, when the invaders are already in the house.
