If the American legal system changes the definition of marriage there will not be any end to the conceivable combinations that will be encompassed in the new definition. So there could not be discrimination with family members, number of people involved in a “union”, animals and the one that is most disheartening to me is children.

It would hurt your marriage and family social structure. If not immediately, certainly the next generation. The activists typically play this point as an attempt to keep potential voters from getting involved. It works on a lot of folks that don’t want to think about and engage in civil debate. Lets not think in terms of “me” rather “us” and future generations as our founding fathers did in their vision to lay the foundation for a free and great country that would become a world changing society.

Why shouldn’t they have the same entitlements? Let talk dollars and sense; imagine the monetary impact on our already financially strapped entitlement programs of our great nation. What rights are the rest of us going to lose at the expense of a social experiment of this magnitude?

This is not strictly a political or religious issue. Lets not forget that our great country was founded due to religious persecution and our God fearing Bible believing founding fathers based the structure of government, as far back as the Mayflower Compact, on biblical principal. To find the definition of marriage we do not need to turn to our state or federal government, rather the bible. It is addressed right up front and is the first God ordained institution. Please don’t take my word for it, grab that book off the shelf, blow the dust off and refresh yourself. After that, please reread the first amendment and understand it. Not as the media would like for you to interpret it as “separation of church and state” but as the writers wrote it and is to be interpreted as the government will not make laws to establish religion as did the governments that they fled so that they would have the freedom to practice the religion of their choice without fear of government repercussion or persecution. Please educate yourselves and understand that stripping us of our religious freedom is the goal of the activists. They are not pushing their agenda through the legislative process but through the judiciary system which we the majority of people have the least control. Same gender marriage and hate crimes legislation are only two ways we are at risk of losing our religious freedom. Look at Canada’s Bill C250 as historic proof. We have similar legislation in Congress as we speak and it will likely pass.

You are correct we are all born the way we are. Born sinners, everyone! Although there is one decision we all must and will make. It is the most important choice a person will ever make. Do the soul searching, questioning and study and make your choice. I pray that it is the right choice the choice for eternal life, Jesus. After that the other choices will still be there but you will have help in making the right decisions.

God Bless All,
Marc
