The Counter-Revolution Against Gay Marriage
Timothy Birdnow
The counter-revolution may well be beginning.
It took over forty years to reverse Roe V. Wade; we can probably reverse the horrible SCOTUS decision that created homosexual marriage out of nothing at all but it will take a long time.
We are now the insurgents and have to fight issue by issue against every victory the Left has won over the last half century.
Oh, it's not "marriage equality" its a fundamental redefinition of the meaning of marriage, one wholly unique in human history. And the legal reasoning was dreadful, with the primary argument being Conservatives hated gay people. That was it, that was the bulk of their reason for making it the law of the land.
Gay people are entitled to dignity and kind treatment (as entitled as anyone else; if they are picking fights and being jerks they should be treated like everyone else who picks fights and acts like a jerk) but redefining the meaning of marriage was, is, and will remain a step too far. If two men can marry, why not first cousins? Parents and children? Why not multiple marriages; that was in fact the way it was done until Christianity finally killed the practice of polygamy. Why not a boy and his dog? Why not a mortician and a corpse? With the rise of AI why can't a person marry their ChatGPT? Desire or a feeling of a state of marriage is not the defining characteristic of the meaning of marriage. It is a very specific thing.
All Ford F150's are pickup trucks but not all pickup trucks are Ford F150's. And certainly not all cars. When you talk about a Ford F150 you are referring to a very specific kind of vehicle.
Now homosexuals are free to covenant privately in any way they wish and nobody is saying they are not free to do so. In fact there have long been gay couples who felt they were in a very special relationship. But it is no more marriage than a guy who goes online to become an ordained minister in the Church of the Holy kumquat is a priest before God and the Holy Catholic Church.
A healthy society needs norms and moral standards and unfortunately our society is losing those and that is in no small part caused by the redefinition of marriage and the assaults on marriage by the leftist in our Western World.
And it certainly is a bad idea for gay couples to allowed to adopt children. but even though a majority are likely not the fact remains these kids need both sexes to raise them and while single sex couples can do it this is hardly the ideal. I would add homosexuals tend to suffer from a lot more psychological problems and substance abuse and that makes it problematic to raise healthy, well adjusted kids.
I don't favor singles being given children either. Nor ex cons. Nor people with mental illness. Nor should he elderly get them except under special circumstances. (I am getting up there in years and have some health issues so I would think being given adoptive children would be a dreadful idea, even though I would love and cherish them and try to raise them properly.)
Raising children is not a right except where those children are your own but even then if you are unfit it's STILL not a right. If you are mentally retarded, or have schizophrenia, or are a sociopath, it's not a good idea for you to be raising kids.
At any rate making gay "marriage" a legal right will have a profound and detrimental impact on our society and we need to reverse it or we will pay a terrible price. Mark my words.

Fifteen or maybe eighteen years ago, I was "on the road" with a show about Judy Garland, and we even took it to her home town. That part is irrelevant. The music director was a long-time friend of mine, and he was gay. We, and some of the rest of the band, were talking one night about the current (it was current at the time) flap about "gay marriage," and he quietly said "It isn't we gays who are pushing for it."
That was the pin drop moment, of course. He went on to say "It's the noisy leftists who need something to fuss about that want it." (He himself was a liberal, of course, but a quiet one.) "We homosexuals basically want what everybody else wants: jobs, homes, the usual stuff. We don't want fuss." And he was right. He's one of the best friends my wife and I have had, ever since the day we met him. I won't go farther now, because it'd take a book.

I've heard similar things from gay people too Dana. It's the left that pushed that, and that was to force Christian people to turn their backs on the Laws of God and celebrate what is forbidden. That's why "Don't ask, don't tell" was destined to fail in the military - it was supposed to. It was just to crack the door open and then let the army march through. But dadt was always what the bulk of gay folks wanted in the first place.
