This is very well done, it really expresses the frustration and ultimate futility of trying to explain to the gay lobby the basic facts of life. It's amazing how stridently a liberal can deny the blatantly obvious! I mean, this is birds and bees stuff, people, your parents are supposed to teach you that... it's embarassing to have to explain this stuff to people.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

JESUS DEFINES MARRIAGE: "And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore, they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." -from THE BIBLE: Matthew 19:4-6

It seems equally unnecessary to jettison our most fundamental social institution in order to accommodate and sanction marriage between two men or two women.

It's about time someone asked the question -- why should marriage be between just two people? If two men can get "married," as well as two women, why not three or four or twenty? How are we to know that next year the gay lobby won't say that an ideal "marriage" consists of two gays and one bisexual? If the progressives cannot handle the basic concept of male and female, how are we to expect them to understand mathematics? And what is to stop the progressives from accepting marriages between close relatives (ugh)? Any resulting genetically-damaged children can be aborted--this would be leftist utopia, would it not? Finally, what is there to stop the child molesters from trying to be "respectable" and advocate "marriage" between adults and children? Where will our social experimenters stop? Their only standard of value is that someone somewhere must enjoy it, and "it," (whatever the "it" of the moment is) must be counter to the values civilized people have held for thousands of years. Once you accept that, there is no logical stopping point. The "slippery slope" is at a 90 degree angle.

If perfection is our standard, we may as well dismantle all our laws and institutions. We could start with traffic lights. Given the number of people who run them, why not eliminate them altogether?

This is certainly the argument of many a scofflaw. "If the law can't/won't be enforced all the time, what good is it?"

Of course, as soon as a problem arises (say an accident) the violation of the law comes into play to determine who is at fault or if there was even a problem. Laws that sit on the books serve a good purpose. Those who claim otherwise are just into social engineering.

If we are to "accept" homosexuality because it reportedly can be found in the animal kingdom (but are these monogamous homosexual relationships for life?) need I remind everyone that there are no marriage ceremonies in the animal kingdom? Ergo, there is no same sex marriage in the animal kingdom.

Marriage between mixed couples is an institution established by civilized man. Civilized man overcomes his baser instincts and animal desires. Civilized man can determine what animal behaviors he wants to identify as unacceptable in the "civilized" world.

Animals rape, perform interspecies sex acts, eat their young, and do a whole lot of other unsavory things. Doesn't mean that we should join them.
