| I am choppy. Nowadays marriage exists because it legally ties one person to another (the past is the past so delving into the origins of marriage and mixing this into Marriages of Today is unproductive). If a couple get a kid then they BOTH must share the burden of raising it unless a legal agreement is made concerning who parents the offspring.
Even if same-sex couples can't produce children together there are other ways for them to get custody of a child (i.e. through adoption).
If traditional people continue to argue for the "preservation" of marriage then they are being stubborn and will lose more than they bargin for in the long run. In the future if I want to tie myself to a girl then I will call her my wife regardless of a lack in a "proper marriage." Older people may not know it but I know that the younger generations are slowly opening up to issues such as gay marriage. It's only a matter of time. DUn dun dunnn....
Sin is salvation. Without "sin" there wouldn't be a concept for "purity" and without a concept of "purity" one wouldn't be able to enter "heaven." |
