How, specifically, does homosexual marriage threaten heterosexual marriage?

This will further weaken families, and therefore threaten the families. Case in point....

When GOD ruled our nation as a whole, and in general (tho some didn't participate) there were laws of the land that were followed. A moral code written and enforced. Slowly, corruption of the institution of marriage, and the weakening of our morals, along with the falling away from God, have lead to various breakdowns of not only our morality and spirituality, but opened the door we are now about to walk through.

We degenerated so to speak in the late 60's..got more liberal in our thinking..burned our bra's and "gave peace a chance" ..now we want to "GIVE PIECE" a chance.

We have had the prolification of cohabitation instead of formal marriage, by law. Used to be that if you lived with someone without being married, it was a scandal. No more! Thanks to those who said..." How does this threaten hetrosexual marriage?"(hypothetically speaking)

There is now an increase in single and teen parentage. How did this happen? We got lax. It used to be the scarlet letter to be pregnant and not married. A scandal to the family. Girls were whisked off out of town to have the baby, and put it out for adoption. A scandal in town !! No more !!! Thanks to those who said...."How does this threaten hetrosexual marriage?"(hypothetically speaking

We have rising divorce rates. Why? Because we got lax and allowed it to be EASY to get a divorce. What was the result? Many, many kids without a family. ( and I know sometimes a marriage is not workable..or had violence..those should be put asunder..but we made it too easy for other's that could have been saved.) But we don't have tough laws..no, No More!! Thanks to those who said..."How does this threaten hetrosexual marriage?"(hypothetically speaking)

All of these things are just part of what has threatened hetrosexual marriage, and more importantly THE FAMILY.

You, Rudder, may think this is just a SMALL THING..but it is NOT. Now we are going to add eventually, homosexual unions acceptable to the court. It is only a matter of time with a dumbed down society. And soon after that, we will add to it..ADOPTION TO GAY UNIONS.Two sodomy partners will adopt a little girl and raise her into a whole woman ? really?

It may not hurt MARRIAGE. But what was marriage designed for ?? The answer to that is FAMILY. You have challenged, (as far as I have read, on this thread) the question of how this will effect marriage. This is the short version of my answer to you...now, I would like you to answer two question...............

1. WHAT BENEFIT TO SOCIETY IS ALLOWING SODAMITES TO MARRY? Sorry....GAY (what is gay about it?) MARRIAGE.

2. Tell me how to explain to a 5th grader who I am teaching about pro creation, what happens between two GAY men. (then tell me what to answer when she says.." But Mama, why would President Bush allow that? How can we say o.k. to something GOD says "no" to?

Rudder...you answer that.

Used to be that if you lived with someone without being married, it was a scandal.

Exactly, same for divorce, out of wedlock pregnacy and sexual relations. The shame factor is gone.

Two sodomy partners will adopt a little girl and raise her into a whole woman? really?

A resent study, I’d have to look up its name if you want a cite, finds that children raised in homosexual households are more likely to practice perversion than the “current” population. She said the rate was 20% when their population is less than 3%.

I didn't think the first part of your answer was responsive to my question, although you did clearly point out how events in the past have influenced the sexual mores of the country. But you concluded that section with, "It may not hurt MARRIAGE." Well, that's what I'm asking: How, specifically, will it hurt marriage? There is of course a tacit assumption in my question and that is I'm not sure it will hurt marriage. But, as I pointed out earlier, that is also your conclusion. We're back to square one on that one.

1. WHAT BENEFIT TO SOCIETY IS ALLOWING SODAMITES TO MARRY? Sorry....GAY (what is gay about it?) MARRIAGE.

I call it homosexual. I don't know, let's see...it keeps them off the street and away from the kids? Actually, I can't see any real benefit.

2. Tell me how to explain to a 5th grader who I am teaching about pro creation, what happens between two GAY men. (then tell me what to answer when she says.." But Mama, why would President Bush allow that? How can we say o.k. to something GOD says "no" to?

Well, should the fifth grader ask such a question and if I were acting in the position of responsibility such as a parent or teacher or a doctor I would tell them that some people are different in that they prefer to have sex with the same sex. That these people are an exception to the rule and that their union is sterile, because it takes a man and a woman to have a child. For the second part: "Some day child, and it can't be too soon, you're going to learn not to trust everything a politican says."
