I Think I Will Marry My Horse
It seems that the big topic is same sex marriage, with the economy still a disaster, our enemies threatening to attack us; Obama-Care turning out to be a disaster, the hot topic is same sex marriage. With only 2% of Americans said to be homosexual but 15% true unemployment in this country, this is what we are concerned about?
Let me be upfront, I am pro traditional marriage, I think same sex marriage is un-natural, God or nature, which ever you prefer to believe in, made two different sexes for a reason. If people want to live that way, knock yourself out, but I resent it being shoved in my face all the time, why homosexuality is even being taught in some schools across our nation, what kind of country are we becoming, I am glad my kids are grown and out of school.
Marriage equality; has anyone considered the consequences if a law like that passes? Opening up marriage equality means not only two men or two women, but what about four men getting married or four women? A law like that will have to allow a man to have a harem, why if a man wants ten wives, he must be allowed to have them because that is marriage equality. How about group marriages, a group of twenty people want to get married and live under one roof, which would falls under marriage equality as well.
Don’t you think that there are wackos out there that would love to marry their pets? You wait and see, if this marriage equality thing comes to pass, it won’t be long before some people line up to get married to their dogs or horses, marriage equality right? What about mother and son or father and daughter, brother and sister, marriage equality means just that. Something like this can open up a whole can of worms, there are plenty of wackos at there.
Let’s face it, there are many, not all, but many who are just activists who don’t really care about the sanctity of marriage, but just want to eliminate marriage altogether. For instance, Masha Gessen, a lesbian and a journalist, spoke frankly about this at a conference in Sydney, Australia, she wrote. “‘It’s a no-brainer that we should have the right to marry, she said. But I also think equally that it’s a no-brainer that the institution of marriage should not exist. … “Marriage equality becomes marriage elasticity, with the ultimate goal of “marriage extinction.” There are many like her who don’t give a hoot about marriage of any kind, their only goal is to eliminate any form of tradition, religion or anything that bind us as a society.
A brief filed by 18 state attorneys general voiced similar concerns: “Once the natural limits that inhere in the relationship between a man and a woman can no longer sustain the definition of marriage, the conclusion that follows is that any grouping of adults would have an equal claim to marriage,” they wrote. The left’s fierce push for “gay marriage” has nothing to do with “marriage equality” and everything to do with “marriage extinction.” There has to be a definition of marriage, or anything has to be allowed.
Of course, the left is coming out and calling those that are against same sex marriage bigots and haters like they do for all arguments. If you disagree with anyone on the left you are automatically a bigot, racist, sexist, homophobes, hater, you know the story, they have been using that same tactic for years, that is their answer for all arguments.
We live in a country that has changed so much over the years, not for the better I might add. A society that dismisses God, but celebrates homosexuality is a society on the way down, there is no doubt about it.

This is one man’s opinion.
The truth is, Chris, once again you’ve added balance aka ‘commn sense’ to the discussion. Many are so intense on personal wants there is a growing tendency to forget the age old axiom “For every action, there is a re-action” Consequences are unavoidable. Indeed, one may wonder if the ‘feels good do it’ and “I’m ok, you’re just so so” days of the 70’s are returning & proving..again.. we haven’t learned from our mistakes…In a Country that has an easily understood Constitution (by those that read it) & where the ‘majority’ are to be served by it..,HOW is it that the small percentage of (2-5%)take priority to the remaining 95-98$ on this or other issues in our path?
I, like you & many others beieve in the traditional marriage…However…The same Creator (I call Him God) that gave me my “free-will” also granted this to those with different opinions. And, in valuing mine, I must also see value in theirs….Is it wrong for me to expect the same in return?
QUESTION: Must I, as a Christian business owner be denied my religious freedoms & alter my business plan to accomadate that which I believe to be morally wrong? Am I to cast aside years of work & dreams of the business I have been building for my childre’s future? … Is a man made restriction & denial of my use of free will and Constutional Right to religious freedoms truly an equal replacement? Am I to be a sacrifical lamb?
Our Country is being threated from fronts around the world. Our very existence is in jeporady…these are the prioritities that should be our focus now…in fighting & division takes attention away from that.
I seriously doubt there will ever be a resolution on this issue, yet we continue to expend valuable energies…(to me) it’s rather like the gambler with an addiction. As my family goes hungry, I set at the table & continue to feed the kitty one more time.
Hi Jan, I am also in favor of traditional marriage, it is the way things God meant it to be. But if someone wants to be a homo let them, I resent the fact it is always being shoved down my throat all the time, forcing me to accept something I know in my heart is wrong. I agree also that Chris always adds common sense to his articles, I enjoy them and he says what he truly believes with no care about political correctness.
I appreciate your comment Jerry. I am sinceir in repecting other opinions, share or not. I try to make a concentrated effort not to use any labels or adjectives to describe the ‘other’ opinion. I believe that to ‘name’ or tag names is to futher divide.
Thanks guys, I like to think I have common sense, people on our side have to speak out more. It seems like many are afraid to speak because of political correctness, that’s why the left is winning.
Unfortunately you are right Chris, P.C. keeps many people from speaking out for fear of attacks, people need to speak up more. By the way I just finished your latest book,it was great, the whole book is full of common sense views, just like all of your articles. Keep up the good fight.
Great insite Chris. You can take the greatest structure that man is capable of creating and destroy it by weakening its structure. Obama and the left are social termites taking little bites at our foundation and our strenght. They know that after a while we will topple. The despots of the world see this also and laugh at how the majority of good moral Americans allow it. I am tired of it myself and am at a point that I refuse to turn another cheek. Obama is not a leader, he is a puppet for another’s cloaked agenda. He knows if you destroy the soul you destroy the person. If you destroy the reason you destroy the purpose. You kill the economy and over regulate business, destroying jobs, you destroy the family and the man…you kill the soul of America. It is a pattern that has worked or every tyrant our world has seen. Obama is not stupid but we are to allow it. JT
Well said Mr T, I agree with you 100%. More people need to stop turning the other cheek, that is the only way we can get America back.
