It has happened in San Francisco. It has now happened in a town in New York. It is threatened in Chicago. Gay marriage is here in all of its rainbow glory. We don't have time for a Constitutional amendment to stop it.
What is it that gays want? The right to visit in the hospital? They have it. The right to will property? They have it. The right for insurance benefits? They have it.
What they want is not tolerance. They have been given tolerance. What they really want is recognition that marriage between two people of the same sex is just as noble as marriage between a man and a woman (as it has been for thousands of years around the world).
Most of us believe in just letting people alone in the privacy of their bedrooms. That has nothing to do with abortion, however, because an abortion results in the death of an innocent. If you believe homosexuality is wrong, you also probably believe that a sinner will eventually meet his Maker. It will be up to God to judge.
But the activist gays have gone way over the top. They are attempting to destroy an institution that has proven to be the best way to raise children and provide for a continuity in society. Moms and dads raising kids is the best thing for children. Gays will never admit that it is better to have a mom and dad. They change the argument and make it a comparison of a divorced couple vs. a loving gay home, whatever that may be.
The next step is logical. Not only do gays want the right to adopt, which they have in several states, but they want equality. They want the adoption and welfare agencies to be gender blind. If a child is available, they want an equal right to adopt. A married man and woman should have no advantage.
They are getting close to that. What will stop them? If they are allowed to marry, not just have some civil arrangement for living, they will sue for adoptive equality. It will only take a few whacked out liberal judges to give it to them.
When it happens, Western Civilization has died. And its death won't even have to be arranged by the Islamist terrorists. It will have been accomplished by self-centered homosexual activists and a handful of judges.
Bump!
