Up front I’ll tell you that I am opposed to homosexual marriage. I am opposed for a wide variety of reasons beginning with my belief that Lawrence v. Texas was a travesty. Be that as it may, I have to agree with many homosexual marriage supporters that it is heterosexuals who have succeeded in debasing marriage and we shouldn’t be surprised when the course we’ve charted for marriage over the past seventy or so years arrives at its logical conclusion in which marriage is treated as the punch line in a gay sex joke.

In Western Civilization, marriage has traditionally indissoluble. The break with that tradition occurred when Henry VIII made himself head of his own church so he could procure divorces when the headsman was indisposed. Even so, in the context of dynastic politics he had a point. Unfortunately, societies tend to be run by elites who are often dismissive of norms of behavior and the masses which emulate them (let’s face it, a married man getting fellated by a woman thirty years his junior was totally déclassé until Bill Clinton arrived on the scene.

The last paragraph is the dozy:

"So, dear readers, if you wonder how we find ourselves in a situation where opposing something that was a felony a decade ago now makes you a bigot and you are no longer sure whether than nice man across the street is a dog lover or thinks your Lab would make a wonderful bride, and your daughter introduces you to future husband and co-wives remember we worked hard to make this hash of a noble institution and we have no one to blame but ourselves...."

My God, I am surprised You did not have those in the video hit with lightening. Did you see the old lady leave in a huff?

It’s actually worse than that. What the LEFT has accomplished is the complete deconstruction of the social fabric of our entire society. They are in the process of implementing a new paradigm based upon dependence on government: men are emasculated, single mothers are wedded to the state, wild gangstas are wards of the state, and all our children are taught to believe in the God of Recycling, Christianity, the Common Law, and civil associations are mocked and ridiculed. There is little time to save ourselves: our only hope is the state legislatures, before we lose them in the immigration tsunami.

You observations are commendable.

“..deconstruction of the social fabric of our entire society.

very astute

Thanks, but it is horrifying to articulate. The enemies of America, both internally and externally, have been working on this since the Roosevelt Administration. Now they occupy the White House and the executive branch, the Senate, 4 or 5 seats on the Supreme Court, and almost half of the House. Washington incumbents are bought: kickbacks and re-election. Our only hope is the state legislatures—before they are overrun by the looming Amnesty Bill.

As someone who lived in that lifestyle I see the blame as being everywhere. Traditional marriage has been run down in modern times by all who oppose Christ. Where Christians come is that so often the church in the West has accepted the lies they’ve been told.
