That it’s been done for thousands of years is immaterial to my argument that it’s a selfish act.
I have never supported homosexual marriage. And I see nothing selfish about that stance. Maybe you do.
BTW, what if you do plan on using your kids to support you in your old age and they die before you do. Then what do you do? Is there a Plan B?
There is no plan B when children die before their parents. That my FRiend would be a disaster. Older parents need their children to support them and I am not in any way talking only in financial terms.
A society which has a government that cares for its elderly citizens is a society not long for this world. Anyone who understands the perversity of socialism and its unintended consequences can see that.
