Same-sex marriage not healthy family
N/A
Oct. 25, 2010 3:51 pm
Will someone explain in what way the homosexuals are being protected by the Iowa Supreme Court's ruling about them marrying? From AIDS? From other maladies related with that lifestyle? Shorter life span?
Marriage is an institution wherein a man and a woman are joined together in wedlock to establish a home and raise a family. A healthy family is a father and a mother and children.
Explain how a deviation from those specifics constitutes marriage? Only in the mind of the individual seeking justification for his/her actions.
The three Iowa justices expounded that homosexuals need to be given the same rights and thereby protected. Protected from what? The wrath of God?
No human can give them that latitude of protection. In fact, legalism “soothes” homosexuals' conscience right down the road to hell.
