Why it is essential to oppose same-sex “marriage” / Babette Francis
The arguments used by the homosexual lobby, notably Australian Marriage Equality is
that the failure to allow people of the same sex to marry is an issue of discrimination, i.e.
denying equal treatment. However, homosexual couples are not “equal” to heterosexual
couples, any more than a female footballer is equal to a male footballer. They are different,
and the difference between homosexual and heterosexual couples is of far more significance
than the differences between sportsmen and sportswomen.
In His plan for humankind, God made human beings in two kinds, male and female with
very clear differences, not only physical but psychological, and most importantly, in
reproductive roles for the continuation of our species. Feminists, the homosexual lobby
and the so-called “progressives” (who are really backward thinking people who would in
linguistic terms reduce humankind to asexual amoeba) have a real grudge against the
Almighty (that is when they acknowledge His existence at all) about His creative “mistake”.
They have been trying to deny and expunge sex differences for the past half
century. Hence the demand that terms like “mother” and “father” be eliminated in documents
relating to children and replaced by “Parent l” and “Parent 2”.
But such parental documentation is based on lies because it needs a man and woman to
produce a child, and the main purpose of marriage as recognised by the state, as well as
religious organisations, is to provide a stable institution for the rearing of children. At least
one of the “parents” in homosexual couples is not the biological parent of the child/children
in that household, and that child/children will be denied the right to be raised by a mother or
a father.
It is obvious to those following feminist and homosexual political strategy that same-sex
“marriage” is not the end game, which is to normalize homosexual relationships and to
de-legitimize heterosexual monogamy. The homosexual lobby believes that heterosexual
monogamy as an ideal is the source of widespread discrimination against alternative
sexualities and lifestyles and must be denigrated as a social standard. Hence President
Obama’s objection to the inclusion of abstinence in government-funded sex
education programs.
By redefining marriage as a union of two persons, rather than one man and one woman, the
offending ideal is removed from the social, cultural and political landscape, and anyone
who supports the ideals of chastity, fidelity and married faithful heterosexual couples is
labeled “homophobic”.
The political battle for homosexual “marriage” by organisations such as Australian
Marriage Equality highlights the futility of the compromise by those Christians who thought
that by supporting same-sex registers they could placate the homosexual lobby. They failed
to realise that AME and similar groups would never be satisfied until they had
changed and destroyed marriage as an institution. Whatever financial or
visitation-in-hospital rights homosexuals complain they have been denied through an
inability to marry, they could achieve through legal channels such as wills,
business partnerships, next-of-kin declarations and other contracts. Furthermore, a
government register for sodomites is in conflict with Biblical precepts.
What the homosexual lobby wants is the ability to label opponents guilty of “hate” crimes.
They demand the right to indoctrinate school children, primary as well as secondary, into
the belief that both heterosexuality and homosexuality are normal and valid, and the right to
teach children explicit details of homosexual practices.
The homosexual lobby regards those who defend the traditional definition of marriage
which privileges the heterosexual norm as being guilty of the new sin of “heterosexism”. And
they are militant in demanding the denial of government funding to any agency which
does not support their agenda. Catholic adoption services in the UK and USA have had to
close down rather than provide children for adoption to homosexual couples.
Homosexual “marriage” infringes on freedom of speech and freedom of religion. Pastors
and priests may get exemptions from officiating at homosexual “marriages”, but there will
be no exemptions for florists, bakers, reception hall owners and others who have
conscientious objections to being involved in such ceremonies.
I can’t help thinking that much of the militancy of the feminist and homosexual lobbyists is
motivated by the ‘politics of envy’. They envy the stability and happiness of many married
couples with children (that “white picket fence” syndrome) but feel they do not have the
self-discipline to achieve that for themselves, so they want to tear down the institution.
Code:
In his annual address to ambassadors to the Vatican on January 9, 2012, Pope Benedict
XVI spoke of “the family, based on the marriage of a man and a woman,” noting that it “is
not a simple social convention, but rather the fundamental cell of every society.” He
added: “Consequently, policies which undermine the family threaten human dignity and the
future of humanity itself…”
Code:
Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Opposition Leader, Tony Abbott are to be commended
for their opposition to homosexual marriage.
