Homosexuals and Marriage

Well, it seems the California Supreme Court found a paragraph in the state’s constitution that demands the term “marriage” be applied to homosexual coupling. Imagine that! Who knew this right was buried in the fine print.

In terms of legal protection, the ruling offers the gay community nothing beyond what civil union regulations already grant. But that’s not the point. The ruling helps legitimize their stature in society and endorses their lifestyle. That was the goal.

And there is nothing wrong with these objectives because homosexuals are treated as second class citizens by many within society.

But marriage is not about respect and acceptance within the community; it’s about responsibility to children, family and mankind.

Homosexuality is a natural phenomenon within the human race. For reasons buried in DNA, a certain percentage of men and women are only sexually attracted to their own gender. This is not in dispute. Thus, from a purely scientific point of view, there is nothing unnatural about homosexuality.

But the institution of marriage, in historical context, was never intended to solely define the rights of a partnership and property ownership.

Marriage formalizes the grave responsibility for the birth and care of children. It defines the goals of the relationship between a man and a woman, and their mutual responsibility for their offspring and the community. Among the religious, the relationship is considered holy.

Marriage is not applicable to the sexual libido of homosexuals because children are not merely a by-product of marriage. It’s the purpose. Granted, the standards of moral behavior have eroded. The birth of children outside of marriage has reached epidemic proportions.

This behavior doesn’t justify comparing a homosexual union to marriage. It’s just symptomatic of the leftwing’s subversion of religious principles throughout society. And to a large degree the deprivation of children, who are born out of wedlock, emphasizes the need to sanctity marriage, and herald the intrinsic values of the unity between a married man and a woman.

It’s not a reason to equate homosexuality with heterosexuality.

Of course, the liberals are thrilled with the ruling of California’s Supreme Court. It’s a natural fit and consistent with their universal ploy to achieve conformity by melding civil rights with religious values. They have spent two decades preaching there is no biological difference between men and women that can’t be corrected by law.

Whether the subject is education, poverty, healthcare, taxation or lifestyle, the liberal goal is to erase the absolute truths intrinsic to the human condition. It’s a subterfuge to besmirch Judeo Christian values and promote socialism.
