I just don't understand how gay civil unions threaten our civilization. Perhaps you can enlighten me. If you can do so without referencing the bible, I will be impressed indeed.
The very idea of courts presuming to have the authority to change natural law is the problem here. This shows just how run away the courts have become. They can no more order a change in natural law than they can order a fish to bark or decree that some men should fill in and act as women where there is a shortage of females. We have to win this one because if we don't the courts can order us to do anything that pleases them. There will be no true definition of the term marriage and in fact they will actually be changing the English language - how's that for arrogance?
The health of society depends on the health of the family. As the family goes, so goes society.
Is that too complicated?
