Will someone please state the obvious--male/female marriage comes from natural law. Marriage is the natural way that a man and woman raise and nurture the children that they bring into the world. The whole structure of human society is built on the foundation of male/female marriage.
It is acceptable to deny marriage to members of the same sex because they have never had rights to marry under natural law and it is not, therefore, discrimination.
Same sex marriage will also open up the door to other forms of marriage such as multiple marriage and incest.
Most rational people understand that it is self evident.
The homo-lobby is the only ones saying anything to the contrary....and it isn’t even coherent.
You’re 100% right.
I really hope that someone in politics or the law will actually use the term “natural law” when speaking of marriage. Since our laws and Constitution are based on natural law it would give traditional marriage greater standing in the same sex marriage debates. In today’s media propaganda flooded culture, the side with the most media access wins. In America today words such as discrimination are much more powerful than tradition, morality, Biblical. People are so dumbed down intellectually and morally that the traditional, moral or Biblical arguments just don’t have the power that they once had.
Unfortunately, we no longer live in a rational culture.
We have to find the right arguments otherwise the homosexual agenda will be seen as the wave of the future. They are gaining the momentum. See how some Republicans are getting antsy to join the pro-gay team? You don’t see Democrats abandoning their pro-gay agenda for a pro-family agenda. No, the Democrats win two presidential elections in a row and the Republican rats are abandoning the ship. We have to get some intelligent, well spoken people with legal backgrounds to speak out for our side.
How hard have you searched for it?

Exactly. And that is why it is imperative for our country to promote and protect marriages from a socially productive POV.
It sickens me to see so many liberal FReepers who applaud queer marriages, support overturning DOMA, and argue the government should stay out of the marriage business.
They want the government out of marriage? Well, guess what? They are getting their wish as LBJ’s Great Sociey program has replaced the father with a welfare check and has attacked the social values of marriage to such an extent that wide-spread welfare - and not healthy productive familes - are now the norm.
Right. Man & Woman were created by God and joined together. Anything else is unnatural. - These homosexuals have joined in with the heterosexuals in that they change “partners” at the drop of a hat. - I care not WHAT Barack Hussein Obama has EVOLVED on in his ever changing campaign mode. It ain’t natural; they know it is not natural, and they can’t force anyone to bow to it. Not they; not Obama.
He seems to fancy himself as some wise sage bestowing “civil rights” on the stupid masses.
The same malevolent spirits who believe marriage has no natural meaning and order are the same reality-denying entities that believe sex (that natural state of being either male or female) is something that can be changed and rearranged at will.
This is "man as his own god" drawn out to its hideous, debased, destructive, and completely absurd end.
There is a growing segment of the population that will double down on lies to maintain the delusions, and they will do whatever it takes to silence the objectors.
I am afraid you are right.
The deranged ‘progressive’ agenda is about persecuting subscribers of tradition and Christians.
Thanks, I just looked it up but the reason that I asked is that I never heard it discussed in the media. I have heard terms such as traditional marriage but I had never heard natural law used in defense of traditional marriage.
Not just the gays, but all those who hate the traditional family The feminists, the marxists, the hippies.
The concept of "Natural Law" is not widely used or understood these days, either.
... they must be destroyed. Marriage begets the family. The family has been undermined and attacked for decades. This marriage defilement-abomination was the next step.
The argument for natural law (i.e. truth, reality) was lost the second the demonic hordes got away with perverting the language i.e. changing truth into a lie. It would be like agreeing that it is fair that a thief return 50% of the stolen property, because that would mean each party would have an equal share.
This is the audacity, chutzpah and change that got Obama elected and reelected. Destroy the old way in order to bring in the new order. Hey it has worked every time it has been tried, if "works" is defined as millions upon millions eliminated.
Liberals don’t believe in natural law, they believe in government.
The MSM doesn’t talk about it because it makes too much sense and would harm their gay agenda.
The Fifth Estate no longer informs the people, it misinforms them.
