Big trouble if a guy or gal wants to marry their horse like that one wacko did a while back! Imagine employer provided health care and SS for a horse!! Could get even worse. Suppose this person objects to his/her spouse being called an animal and insists it be treated as a human being. I'd hate to be on an airplane when this person takes the spouse on a second honeymoon and insists it get a seat like everyone else. And some idiot judge will agree with him/her.

There was already one case a few years ago when some nutcase was allowed to take her "companion animal" on an airplane with her. Seems she had an "emotional need" that it met. Caused quite a ruckus when it was running up and down the aisle, and after they landed, it proceeded to crap all over the terminal floor. I guess the janitorial crew weren't accustomed to cleaning up pig$#!+.

The cultural war is being fought on many fronts.

It's being lost, too. In fact I'll go on record as saying that it is lost. This insanity is going to run its course. Whoever is left standing when the dust settles will have the sorry task of trying to pick up the pieces. Go rent "The Postman" and try to use it for inspiration. Remind yourself that it's just fiction, though. Reality will be much harsher.

"...but it rolls off the tongue."

You paint a revolting word-picture.

Sometimes it does seem as though the cultural wars are over and we conservatives have lost. That's when it's really necessary to keep the faith and recognize we're not alone.

The good and evil war is being fought on many fronts.

Oscar Wilde’s "love that dare not speak its name" has turned into a lifestyle that won’t shut up.

INDEED--won't shut up . . . tight or otherwise . . . well, uhhh . . .

One of the big problems in society is that people have lost sight of the most important aspect of marriage. I wonder how many people would be able to answer the following questions correctly:
  1. Ideally, what is the most important thing that is created when a man and woman get married?
  2. Ideally, how long will that last?
Hint: the answer to #2 isn't "A lifetime".
