Quote:The problem that I have with Homosexual unions (from a secular standpoint), is that legalizing such "Unions" are not only unnatural in the sense of sexual reproduction, but they are a direct assault on the foundation of the nuclear family. Which whether people want to admit this or not, is the foundation of Human civilization as a whole.

 

 

Relationships lead to marriages. Marriages lead to families. Families lead to communities. Communities lead to civil Governance. Governance leads to Nationalities. Nationalities lead to civilizations.

 

 

Once the foundation is taken away, it leads to disorder and chaos. 

 

 

And before the PC police on here decries me as being "Homophobic" (Which btw, originally meant the fear of Man and not homosexuals), I don't care if anyone is a homosexual. I'm not going to try and force my beliefs on anybody on what they should, or shouldn't believe in. And hopefully nobody else will try and force their beliefs on me either. It just doesn't work that way. But I do feel that traditional values should not be thrown away and treated as merely the conservative beliefs of "An older generation."

 

As my Grandfather always says: "It's your life not mine."

 

It all starts at Relationships correct? I agree that a family is the foundation of society, as the family goes so does society. But how and when did family building become a responsibility for government?

 

Honestly the problem is that government is even involved in marriage, it's a religious ceremony and if you don't want to call it religious at the very least it's a union between individuals. That's the grounds that I oppose marriage laws, it's not just support same sex marriage, it's opposing government interference in ANYONE's private union. (I'll classify that as between consenting adults, obviously children and animals can't consent so they can't enter a union.)

 

Traditional Marriage, Homosexual Marriage, Polygamy, Incest, Bi-Racial Marriage, Contracted Marriage none of it has anything to do with government. The only reason they're involved today is because of the over complicated tax implications. It's ridiculous you have to pay for a license to prove to the government you've selected a partner.
