Why we are losing the 'gay marriage' battle

Because most people know in their hearts that if we give them 'gay marriage' then 'gay divorce' and 'gay alimony' will follow, and in a couple of years they will have learned their lesson and stopped asking.

The only reason most heterosexuals put up with marriage and it's risks and limitations, is children. Since most homosexuals don't adopt, 'gay marriage' is an experiment doomed to failure.

Sit back, relax, and get ready to listen to them whine.
The handful of 'gay marriages' that will continue or last will be too insignificant to bother worrying about.

Sanity comes to FR. Enjoyed your post and agree with you.

Great minds must think alike. I posted way back when, with the same rationale you used. If a gay couple want the fun of having a lawyer split their property, their earnings, their investments and future earnings should they 'divorce'; I say more power to them.

Then they can whine as they are making alimony payments, until thier ex- decides to remarry.

How much do you want to bet that at THAT point in time, they will argue that the gay marrage issue was a mistake, and that it should never have been permitted to happen. This too, will be the fault of those darn Conservatives; not theirs.

Absolutely, if it wasn't for children, there is now way I would have gotten married. You got it right there. But, you have to admit there are many people who do get married and never have children for some reason or another. But, for me no way. I am female, if I was a guy I can imagine there would even more reason not to get married unless family was a primary motivating factor. As my grandma would say why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free.

And another thing, I think that with the turnover rate and infidelity among homosexuals the legal ramifications would soon become highly visible.

Nope, you don't know the activism then. They want to be recognized in our eyes. A failure of such 'marriages' would only push them to change society further. Restrictions on the freedom of speech, who can be legislators and the abolition of churches will surely follow.

It is a brave new world you propose and a pray that the Lord would grant repentance from this abomination.

From logic alone, you know that rapes of young boys would surely increase. Is one more acceptable? Men and Women are wooed from their marriages. Is it OK that more children will loose their mommies and daddies?

The Lord spare us from what is proposed.

What a cynical view of a loving marriage. Although children are important they are not a destined result of marriage. My good female friend is unable to bear children. She and her husband have been married for 15 years. They stay together because they love and care for each other.
