“I think a big consequence of homosexual marriage (along with polyamory) is shacking up by heterosexuals.”
In all truth, the hetero shacking up has been going on for a LONG time, long before one ever heard the concept of homosexual “marriage”.
This really all started with no-fault divorce.
That is when the concept of marriage ceased to be what was good for children, good for the family and good for society and became all about “self-actualization”.
I know shacking up has gone on for a long time. I agree about the bad consequences of no-fault divorce.
But homosexual marriage, sanctioned by government, celebrated by the media, makes things much worse. Homosexual marriage tells the young that society has no more religious scruples about our most important institution — marriage. Anyone can do anything without fear of God. The guilt is gone.
Says the MTV generation, if gays are heroes, and can have 20 partners a night, what’s wrong with me living with my girlfriend?
