I am strongly convicted in my knowledge that marriage is an institution and sacrament from God ordered to the procreation and generation of children. Marriage is between one man and one woman.

Having said this, I don't see the profit of dedicating inordinate amounts of time or energy to the subject. First, we're dealing with a tiny minority of disordered people here. Second, the issue pales in comparison to the other things that are disordered in government. Third, ignoring the constant pleas for attention by these narcissists seems a prudent approach.

OK, know and be ready to defend your position but first point out the absurdity of spending time and resources on what is essentially a perversion. It should not be dignified beyond that. Not a topic worthy of discussion and a diversion.

Yep. Gays are a tiny percent of the population. Monogamous gays are a tiny percent of that subset. Numerically, the subset of that subset is about as numerous as the entire Amish population in the eastern United States.

Its not just a live and let live proposition though. That has already been proven in the gay marriage states that have impinged on religious beliefs of businesses and CHURCHES to serve this perversion. Conservatives recognize it for what it is, another incursion on the BOR, the slow drip, drip, drip of incrementalism, and the stripping of liberties because someone thinks it is politically expedient to just give up.

It’s always been about using the power of the state to punish those who they know can never buy into ‘gay marriage’ or whatever other impossibility the state defines as marriage for itself. It’s the stick they will never have to put down. So in my opinion it’s going to be pretty hard to not talk about. The other side is going to bring it up, and you will have the testimony of those who have been punished for not accepting it.

You support recognizing gay marriage in the military and the end of marriage, as it becomes anything and nothing and don’t think it worthy of discussion?

After all of human existence, the left just recreates man marriage and family and America, and ends the possibilities for conservatism to exist in the future?

Mentally disordered at that. Big time.
