Very soon, said the Cardinal in a chilling prophesy that is already coming to fulfillment in many Western nations, including Canada, it will not be possible.
That's absolutely right. Under the disguise of equal rights and in this case, civil rights, gay marriage is the law of the land in Canada. They were successful equaling: gay marriage with racial discrimination, which is utterly absurd since we know that homosexuality is a lifestyle choice not determine by birth as is race or color.
Furthermore, homosexuals enjoy the same rights and benefits we all have. They can also get married and enjoy the state's blessings provided they get married to someone of the opposite sex.
The truth of the matter is that gay marriage is NOT a right, but the erosion of a society's right to preserve the institution of marriage, which by definition, is a union between a man and a woman thus, a gay couple CAN'T demand such right. Nevertheless, attempts to publicly express this kind of opinion is promptly censure and branded as a hate speech by the same group that demands tolerance to publicly flaunt their homosexuality.
Since homosexuals can legally get married, they can also adopt children. The question is... who protects the rights of the majority? Not only our freedom of expression, but also the rights and privileges of children to grow up free from homosexual indoctrination and with 2 parents a mother and and a father - not 2 dads or 2 moms?
Gay marriage isn't about rights, but a deliberate attempt to undermine one of society's most cherish institutions marriage - which is not intrinsic to the homosexual lifestyle.
Outstanding post, Victoria. This was one of the most remarkable articles I've seen in a long time. I think Pope Benedict really hits the nail right on the head.
