Polygamy has a long history, it was practiced in the old testament and is practiced in Islam. How could any western government argue against polygamy and for gay marriage. This will no doubt be the first serious challenge and I don't see how the polygamist looses.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15895903241721314171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117781049758667108.post-4978134084007857142014-04-21T02:33:04.295+01:002014-04-21T02:33:04.295+01:00i am gay and would have been perfectly fine with c...i am gay and would have been perfectly fine with civil union status. You are right many gays, especially the militant political gays hate the church and it has always been part of the agenda to get gay marriage recognized federally and then go after the tax exempt status of any church that refuses to marry them or who teaches that homosexuality is a sin. I am gay celibate and catholic (in the process of converting) I have never heard an anti gay word during a homily, not once. I know the church's official teaching but I see far more hostility from gays toward the church than the other way around.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15895903241721314171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117781049758667108.post-33835930781611668932013-10-16T21:46:44.354+01:002013-10-16T21:46:44.354+01:00What great information!What great information!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117781049758667108.post-66134867098920821632013-03-29T21:38:48.571+00:002013-03-29T21:38:48.571+00:00Curious Cat Lady (nice name and, by the way, I'...Curious Cat Lady (nice name and, by the way, I'm like you, I like cats and Christ), you make very valid and good points.<br /><br />Yes, it's true that a trio married in Brazil and that, if the only precondition for marriage is love, there is nothing stopping the wedding of a man and his dog, or of two blood relatives (incest is also increasingly permitted by the legislation of some countries) or of an adult and a child. Indeed, there is every sign that paedophilia, whose supporters have always historically been close to the GLBT movement, will be the next taboo to be broken:<br /><br />http://www.enzaferreri.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/trio-married-in-brazil.html<br /><br />http://www.enzaferreri.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/consenting-adults-homosexuality-incest.html<br /><br />As for freedom of speech, homosexualists are becoming more and more similar to Muslims in their intransigence, lack of tolerance and respect for other opinions, and imposition of blasphemy/censorship through fear or law.Enza Ferrerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11475073866356059265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117781049758667108.post-43012618134378440412013-03-29T14:07:54.324+00:002013-03-29T14:07:54.324+00:00Yeah I agree, I don't think the gay marriage t...Yeah I agree, I don't think the gay marriage thing is equality, it's preeminence. I believe it's basically turning all marriages into civil partnerships. No longer will marriage be about sex (homosexual marriage has no grounds for divorce due to adultery, as it cannot be defined what sex is anymore). No longer about procreation of children. No longer will there be mother and father or husbands and wives (simply progenitor A and progenitor B). This is a massive change which will no doubt have huge effects on society. And if marriage is redefined and becomes only about any 2 people committing to eachother, what's to stop it from changing in the future? On what grounds should we not allow 2 brothers to marry for example? And why stop at 2 people, why not have group marriages (which apparently they've started in Brazil)?<br /><br />The future knock-on effects will be enormous too. Right now, if the bill passes, churches wont be forced to marry gay couples, that wont last long. I mean, why should the church be allowed to discriminate but not anyone else? It wont be long before it is illegal not to allow a homosexual couple to marry in church. And then persecution will creep in e.g. Churches charity status will be taken away from them... Teachers will be sacked for not teaching homosexual marriage. Do homosexuals really want marriage so much that they don't mind causing people to go against their moral conscience? <br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I love my gay friends and think they should be allowed equal rights, but that doesn't necessarily mean changing one of the most basic and fundamental institutions in our society. Will that really change homophobic attitudes? Is it really so wrong to have an exclusive type of union for a male and female?<br /><br />Surely the matter is so big that it needs to be fully debated first? But anyone who openly opposes gay marriage is looked upon as a religious bigot homophobe etc. if I even mention I'm pro-male-female marriage, the response is so ugly! I know gay people who also oppose gay marriage... are they homophobes? I've been hearing of politicians who have sent letters of support to those against gay marriage, but plead not to tell the public about them for fear of being sacked. Do we really want a society where we can't have free speech?
