Re: “Gay Marriage”

The term itself is fraudulent, and is another example of the left twisting our language to promote their agenda.

Homosexuals aren’t “gay,” and marriage has always been between men and women (one of each).

This about re-defining words and attacking the foundation of western civilization (the family) at the same time.

When I say I chuckle I mean marriage between same sex couples is a joke.

Laughter at them is the best way to let them know how you feel.

"Shouldn’t consenting adults be allowed to do whatever they want as long as they’re not hurting anyone?"

This is based upon a false premise.

In God's Plan, men and women have been made for one another. For every right man, there is a right woman. First, they need to be attracted to one another, and then must verify their compatibility.

As with all other aspects of our lives, when we fail to walk in fellowship with God through faith in what He provides, we also place ourselves outside His Plan. We can lose rewards and inheritance which had bee predetermined for us in eternity past by our volition and rebellious behavior.

In the case of marriage and family, if 2 homosexuals continue to rebel from God and what He provides, they not only damage themselves, they also deny their predetermined spouses from their predetermined marriages and families.

Homosexuality doesn't just effect the 2 homosexuals, it effects at least two other potential spouses and the denial of potential family members their inheritance of families.

Homosexuality is also the most sexist of behaviors, being entirely opposed to the rights of the opposite sex in how provided for them.

People had married for thousands of years, all over the world, before Henry the Eighth.

Marriage is an institution based more on morality and custom than law, and concerns the family rather than the state. To say that marriage is a legal matter only is to say that the family is what the state says it is.
