Ladies, gentlemen,
we will eventually be ostracized, and same-sex unions will likely be the mechanism used, primarily.
Laws and regulation are useful to the left as a means of correcting what they deem as either irrational or inappropriate behavior. But they do not apply to the left. And the usefulness of championing SSM is not so much doing of right, in light of the left’s love of “moral relativism,” but precisely because it may be employed to destroy the traditional family, and thus, American society as a whole.
Not to mention how pervasive political correctness is in the corporate world. I spent many years quietly enduring exposure to “inclusiveness” and “diversity” gabble at company meetings. I’m sure many here have. That PC garbage will ensure that at least some relatively malleable folks, or those ill-equipped with the facts may feel that SSM isn’t “so bad.”
For the momentum to be stopped, among other things, the regime would have to change, with the new one being a literal 180º from the current one. Every head office would have to have a mandate to immediately rework this garbage, out of the system. And that doesn’t take into account existing laws, or the time between now and the election. I don’t bet. If I did, it’d be very tempting to say that it’s a bet that the admin will move like lightning to get it done by election time. Not so much the oppression of we who oppose it, yet, but implementation of a national SSM law, or at least a bill.
I think we’ll see this happen. And I think the second-class citizen treatment will happen, too. Look at it this way. MF Global went down Oct. 31. No one arrested. Customers funds frozen, and liable, perhaps, to clawback. Corzine walks through a soft testimony. No laws enforced. BK misfiled so creditors come first, not customers. If the administration’s friends and fund-raisers can be this blatant, where is the impetus for them to stop? It may not be immediate, but it will be soon. Pray.
In the example of the revered law professor, Christians who haven't gotten the message by now will be lumped with "separatists and KKK". Except that in the old days, separatists and KKK had a (D) label, which was the path to political power in much of the Old South, and (more quietly), the Old North. Even today, modern liberalism owes much to racists in their closet. Like being a nazi, they have to let sleeping bad guys lie. But it's still a mark of distinction to support every commie from Marx to Putin.
As far as Christians go, some congregations sold out, or quietly swept it under the rug. Those that still oppose SSM and abortion are following the same beliefs they always had. The world just changed underneath their feet, but they didn't cause that.
Interestingly, Islam holds the same views, but for some strange reason won't even merit a disapproving glance, much less the promise to make them something less than second-class citizens.
