Defending marriage as the union of one man and one woman, House Representative Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) cited the Bible but then took a “totally secular approach” based on nature and proposed an experiment: put gay couples on one island and heterosexual couples on another island and then come back in 100 years and you will see “which one nature favors.”
“Let’s just see” what happens, said Gohmert in a speech to students at Liberty University. “Just see, you know?”
As he explained, “I took some grief recently. I was being interviewed on C-SPAN, in their private interview early and she [the host] was asking me questions, and it always lights up our phone when I talk about the Bible or anything about things Christians believe – I said, let’s just take a totally secular approach to this.”
“Congress is good about having studies,” he continued. “How about if we take four heterosexual couples and put them on an island where they have everything they need to live and exist, and we take four couples of just men and put them on an island where they have all they need to survive, and then let’s take four couples of just women and put them on an island.”
“And then lets come back in 100 years and see which one nature favors,” said Gohmert. “Just see, you know? Let’s just see.”
Earlier in his remarks, Gohmert cited the definition of marriage as established by God in the Old Testament and the New Testament.
“Moses believed in God and Moses said, God gave me this word, and the word is that a man shall leave his father and mother, and the woman will leave her home, and the two will become one flesh,” recounted Gohmert.
“Then, Jesus Himself, when He was asked about divorce and marriage, He said – He quoted Moses exactly, verbatim, and then He added a line – and what God has joined together let nobody separate,” said the congressman.
“So if you believe there’s a God, you believe Moses knew something about that God, and you think Jesus knew something about that God – He was God, He was one, the three are one – then you have to understand there is something to this foundational thing called marriage.”
Louie Gohmert, 62, is in his sixth term as a member of Congress. Prior to Congress, Gohmert was a lawyer in the U.S. Army, served as a state district judge in Tyler, Texas, and was a chief justice on Texas’s 12th Court of Appeals. A Southern Baptist, Gohmert is married and has three children.
Boom!
No one can throw a hand grenade in the out house like Louie can..
Whoa
Yes, but which one will be better able to make designer drapes and matching upholstery out of coconut shells and banana skins?
He is one of the few people I enjoy voting for every two years.
Yeah, but one island won’t have any globull warming, air, water or other pollution.
OK. While we’re at it, let’s put elderly people on one island, twenty-somethings on another and see Who Nature Favors. Elderly people are clearly unnatural as far as Nature is concerned.
Better yet, let’s put Representative Gohmert on an island and see how *he* fares...
He ain’t wrong.
For all practical purposes, America itself has already become Faggot Island. With Bruce Jenner as “Jungle Princess,” wearing Dorothy Lamour’s sarong, while all the restless natives await the big volcano to blow.
This whole sick, depraved country needs a severe washdown in bleach.
Heterosexual unions ARE the natural order of things. The representative is right. It is one thing to say we tolerate homosexual and lesbian couples. Who am I to tell them who they can sleep with?
It’s something entirely different to say those couples are just another family on par with heterosexual unions. That two homosexual males and their adopted children are equal to a heterosexual couple raising their own biological offspring.
Let’s not forget that any time we see a homosexual or lesbian couple with children, one of the biological parents is missing! While adoption can be a good thing in cases where one or both of the biological parents cannot raise the children, it’s not a good thing to intentionally tear children from their biological parents so as to cater to the whims of homosexuals and lesbians.
The Natural Family includes grandparents and infants——and the basis of our Constitution is Natural Law Theory-—and to promote Reason/Justice and the Laws of Nature which includes the Natural Duty to raise our own biological offspring—only possible with true marriage. Babies should have the Natural Right to be raised by biological parents ALWAYS.
The Laws of Nature designed the body to be USED in ONE WAY to procreate-—which is based on biology and the FACT that males are born with 1/2 of the reproductive system. For “marriage” (a union), it is only possible with a female. Sodomizing others is not a “marriage” or union. It is irrational and vile and a pagan religious Rite. Our SCOTUS should NOT be forcing Satanism on our children in a “Justice” —Queen of Virtue—not Vice—System.
Promoting Vice in Just Law is unconstitutional and irrational and evil—to “teach” little children that sodomizing others (muslim ethics) is a “Good”.
It erases 2000 years of the best ethics system in the World....the basis of the US Constitution and Common Law—Christianity—the worldview which created the Age of Reason, Modern Science and the US Constitution. Why would anyone want to eject the only rational ethic system in the history of mankind?
Oh—ya—the Marxists and sodomites like Keynes who bragged about bringing back and normalizing the “Love” that dare not be whispered (Man/Boy “love”). Abused children grow up to have evil desires to abuse children-—they are evil..
Golly. It’s like you’d need a degree in Human Sexuality to understand this.
“Better yet, let’s put Representative Gohmert on an island and see how *he* fares...”
I wouldn’t be surprised if he fared better than you.
Ouchie dittos!!
Cast a vote for me, I’m from Massachusetts. :^(
Did it hit too close to home?
Hey, you get to vote for Fauxcahontas. That’s a Consolation Prize.
One may have a sustainable population, but the other one will have fabulous curtains.
