Some gay agenda-ists say "gay marriage" is valid because such was allowed in the past. Supposedly, there were some cases where the Church or some pagan community allowed gays to 'marry'. Is that reason for allowing "gay marriage" today? Well, let's examine the logic of this argument. It implies that something is valid today because it had been allowed in some rare occasions in the past. If that's the case, why should we not allow adult-child marriage? Surely there were more examples of adult-child marriage than 'gay marriage' in the past. So, if 'gay marriage' should be valid because it had been allowed in some occasions in the past, might we not argue that adult-child marriages should also be valid today? "What was good enough for them (in the past) should be good for us now", or that is the logic of the gay agenda-ists. Of course, some would argue that child-adult marriage would lead to adults abusing or molesting children, but liberals have demonstrated over and over that reality is a matter of terminology. Why call it 'molestation' or 'abuse'? Why not call it 'adoration' or 'tenderness'--especially since we dress up our little kids like pimps and hookers these days? If fecal penetration between two gays is 'sharing love', why not call the acts of pedophiles 'kindness toward children'? If finding homosexuality putrid is 'homophobia', why not argue that those who loathe pedophilia are 'pedophobes'? This is what happens when terminology is abused to push stupid agendas. What the gay agenda has done, the pedophile agenda can do also. Pedos can ask, in the spirit of nitwit Anna Quindlan, 'In a world so filled with violence and mistreatment of children, what's wrong with showing them affection, love, and tenderness'? Ewwww. Also, for all I know, there may have been man-beast marriages in the past too. Certainly some primitive cultures have myths were humans and animal-gods have mated. Of course, 'bestiaphobes' could argue that a marriage between man and animal cannot be a marriage since (1) animal cannot agree to it and (2) animal cannot understand the concept of marriage. But, if marriage is anything we choose to make it, who says marriage has to defined in the 'traditional' Western way? Who says both sides have to consent? After all, most marriages in history were not consensual but cases of children being married off by their parents. The concept of romantic love and finding the mate of your choice is a relatively recent idea. Most people--especially women--had to marry whom they were ordered to marry. So, there goes the idea that marriage MUST be consensual. Also, why not change the rules of marriage so that ONLY one side need to understand what it is AS LONG AS the other side shows no objection. Surely, an animal, which cannot understand the concept cannot agree to it, but neither can it oppose it. So, where's the harm? Also, isn't it true that some marriages happen between people who don't really understand it either. Suppose some guy wants to marry a severely retarded woman with an IQ of a dog. Suppose the guy proposes to her and she doesn't understand anything but just nods her head and mutters, 'yah, yah, yah'. I'll bet the state would let the two marry even though the retardo's understanding of marriage is no better than that of a dog. So, we could argue that if there had been instances of man-animal marriages in the past, such should be allowed today as well. After all, 'what was good enough for them should be good enough for us'. So is the logic of gay agenda-ists who call for 'gay marriage' since there had been such perversions of the law and morality in the past. What really puzzles me about liberals is that, on the one hand, they always talk about progress and the future. They generally say the past sucks, was all bad, blah blah. But, on this 'gay marriage' issue, they've decided to drag out some idiot social perversion from centuries past to uphold as proof validating 'gay marriage' for all time. What a bunch of asses.[ Auf dieses Posting antworten ]
