It’s sin, therefore it’s wrong. So is shacking up. Kids WANT their parents to teach them right from wrong.

If you’re a believer, tell them what God Almighty says about it. If you’re not, make up whatever floats your boat. One lie is just as good as another.

The final paragraph in the article:

For when you ask my daughter to accept that a man may marry another man, that a woman may marry another woman, you are asking her to suspend her capacity to judge the world around her and judge it truly. You are requiring her to declare that 2 + 2 = 5 as an act of victory over her natural inclination toward the true and the good. You are trying to trap her in a world where nothing is as it seems.

Just tell her this is a fine example of what happens when people think they are smarter than the world around them, so smart they can change nature with a mere decree.

It is also an object lesson in that just because something is legal, it isn't necessarily right.

Fine spot to segue into how The Almighty makes the rules, and human attempts to rewrite them are not only folly, but have a tendency to end very badly for those who think themselves smarter than their Creator.

Too nuanced I'm afraid for the SSM crowd.

Plus, she leaves no room for the fact that (reality not withstanding), peoples feelings are hurt when they don't get what they want...

Marriage is the legal device we use to protect a biological relationship that predates language. Humans happen to be a species whose biology pushes us towards mating for life.

Changing legal terminology so that any two people can be called “married”, regardless of whether they have a biologically determined relationship does not change our biology.

Marriage is, and will always be, the bond between a mated pair of humans. Mates can only be one male and one female.

The ones pushing the hardest to install the agenda of the Father of Lies are the ones who scoff the fiercest at his very existence. This judge who declared by fiat that girls of any age must have access to the “Plan B” contraceptive pill is a prime example. They will all get the chance to meet him in person, later, including all these the godless advocates busy redefining God’s creation.

An interesting article. She brings up many questions. You know what the Left’s answer is?

Shut up, homophobe!

You tell them “Just because you CAN do it doesn’t mean you SHOULD do it”.

The beauty of the whole same sex marriage thing is that it is a rarity. Right now, it is a novelty but they wear off over time. Within a year, the numbers begin to plummet and soon the majority of same sex marriages won’t be between homosexuals. It will be people trying to game the system. Same-sex marriage comes with same-sex divorce and that is an UGLY thing to behold.
