Very good article. I think what the author doesn’t realize or maybe just doesn’t say is that the “gay rights” thing (where their “rigths” trump everybody else’s) is actually just part of the relentless progressive battle to destroy the family and the entire private sphere.
The Church is the protector of the private sphere against the government, and always has been. Christianity has always been that irritating thing that keeps the government from completely taking over every individual under it. “Just a pinch of incense, what harm will it do?” But Christians held firm and went to their deaths rather than pretend that the civil ruler was God.
The gay attack is just another ingenious way of getting at Christians and trying to bring the private, personal sphere under government control. After all, what meany can be against two loving gays getting “married”...it’s really not much, is it? So forcing everybody to declare that this civil partnership between two men or whatever is “marriage” really isn’t a big deal, and Christians are just being nutty and fanatical by refusing to participate. Ignoring it or tolerating it is not enough; they have to participate and swear their support to this state-invented doctrine. And if they don’t, then the state has every right to get involved and force them to do the right thing.
I think most people, including most Christians, don’t realize what’s at stake here.
THAT is exactly correct.....Our stinking progressive government MUST find someway to convince us that our rights come from government....NOT GOD. Simply because what government gives government can take away....What God gives ONLY God can take away....
It drives the progressives CRAZY...
If the word “one” is not specific in the civil law regarding marriage, what will be so special about the word “two.” Polygamy and triads of various sexes will be the next push for ‘acceptance.’
As you say, it is all to attack the power of the family which is the bedrock of civilization.
Exactly right. Today it is considered unacceptable to criticize cohabitation and single parenthood--no matter how much harm comes to children as a result. When "mama's boyfriend" batters a child, the only socially acceptable response is to call for more government programs for all parties. Same-sex marriage and parenting will just take us farther down that road. And its primary victims will be innocent children.
Yeah, I think you’re exactly right.

Yo, right here.
