I wrote this response to Will, a homosexual man who regularly posts responses to Mike Adams columns. In this response, he was gloating about the fact that Maine has become the 5th state to affirm homosexual marriage (in spite of the fact the the column was not about homosexuality in any way, but was rather about Statist.)
You are constantly bringing up gay rights, and you may in fact be right that gay activists are "winning" politically. Sadly though, just like the Statist of this article, when you win, everyone loses. People often do choose to indulge their own immediate sexual desires verses engaging in the harder work of forming real families and real marriages.
People in this country for years have denigrated marriage to follow their own lusts which makes it natural to completely destroy the meaning of the institution completely, but is this a good thing. No, of course not, you can no more change the fact that stable families with a dad and a mom are the best environment to raise happy healthy kids then you can change the law of gravity. Our problem these days is that so many people are already a screwed up, so they cannot see how bad the destruction of marriage is.
By the way, the same self-indulgent culture also leads us to give our right away along with our responsibilities. To many Esaus who are willing to sell their birthrights for a bit of government soup.
So go ahead, celebrate your victory, but remember if you do "win" it will be a very hollow victory that leads to more misery for everyone.
