"...What's at risk in this fight is not the civil rights of homosexuals. What's at risk is religious freedom for every American. That and the not-so-small problem of undermining what has been for centuries the very foundation of society."

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Marriage between one man and one woman as a social institution provides for Procreation. Procreation is defined below.
Meaning #1: the sexual activity of conceiving and bearing offspring
Synonyms: reproduction, breeding, facts of life
Gay union between one gay and onther gay person no matter what, can NEVER result in PROCREATION.
That is why Gay Unions cannot be given the status of Marriage.
Freepers, what do you think?
The gay activists always tell us that it is discrimination not to have same-sex marriage. They tell us that the definition of marriage is just like racial discrimination.
The gay activists rarely tell us why homosexual marriage is good for society. They don’t tell us why it would be a good social policy for us to have homosexual marriage.
The positives, if any, about homosexual marriage, are missing from the same-sex marriage debate. Clearly, simply saying that anyone opposed is just a bigot and a homophobe did not convince people, even in a liberal state such as California.
Today is the five-year anniversary of the Goodridge case in Massachusetts, which led to same-sex marriage in that state. The lesbian Goodridge couple who filed the suit is long since separated, but that’s another story.
The papers have had puff pieces about this anniversary, saying that the sky hasn’t fallen, etc. and that the fears of opponents haven’t been realized with homosexual marriage. They interviewed gay couples who say their lives are fine, and that nobody in Mass. looks at them differently anymore due to their legal status.
The sky hasn’t fallen, but their have been consequences to homosexual marriage. The papers just don’t want to talk about that. They would rather talk about happy couples living their lives and talking about how they have bought houses together.
It has never been about civil rights. It has always been about forcing people to accept what has through most of human history considered deviant. Even the Greeks at the time before they passed from prominence in history would’ve ridiculed the idea of “gay marriage”. One does not have to be religious to understand the wrongness/incorrectness of homosexuality. It is about pushing what is an clear fiction on the whole of society to assuage the egos of individuals who are not content with keeping their otherwise private sexual behavior to themselves.
The whole movement began in the gay bars of NY City and San Francisco among a fairly well off group of individuals. There was never widespread abuse of homosexuals or even discrimination for that matter for the simple reasons that homosexuals generally did not flaunt their behavior though it was common for them to go cruising to Europe to take advantage of the sex trade in young boys in places like Amsterdam.
No one should be attacked for supporting what is simple reality. If anything homosexuals should feel lucky the public has not rose up against them physically. They have invaded our schools, they have tried to infiltrate and distort every part of society towards a gay centric perspective. They would not be so lucky in a Muslim nation.
The fight will only be harder in the future and we better be ready. Look to poll numbers of the young folk. They are more permissive of this crap. No doubt this is due in part to liberal school curriculum and the liberal media but as these folks and the ones after them come to the fore it will be very hard to hold the line unless we can win over enough of them.
OK that’s it, new tag line
When arguing gay 'marriage', always remember that THEY need to convince YOU why we should redefine marriage, NOT the other way around. They always try to turn the argument around so that you need to try to convince them of something. Be wary of this tactic.

14. REPROBATE
The Greek word for reprobation identifies a mind that is void of moral judgement. It refers to those who have received strong delusions because of their own moral impurity and now believe the lie that man is the dictator of his own destiny.
“And even as they [sodomites] did not like to retain God
in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convienient.” (Romans 1:28)
