The promotion and protection of marriage — the union of one man and one woman as husband and wife — is a matter of the common good and serves the well-being of the couple, of children, of civil society, and all people. The meaning and value of marriage precede and transcend any particular society, government, or religious community. It is a universal good and the foundational institution of all societies. It is bound up with the nature of the human person as male and female, and with the essential task of bearing and nurturing children. – U.S. Religious Leaders

From the beginning, the targets of the sexual revolution were the Family and the Church. Once these two institutions are perverted and destroyed, there will be nothing to shield the individual from the State.

[T]o the extent that one is in the grip of sexual-liberationist ideology, one will find no reason of moral principle why people oughtn’t to engage in sexual relations prior to marriage, cohabit in non-marital sexual partnerships, form same-sex sexual partnerships, or confine their sexual partnerships to two persons, rather than three or more in polyamorous sexual ensembles. Moreover, one will come to regard one’s allegiance to sexual liberalism as a mark of urbanity and sophistication, and will likely find oneself looking down on those “ignorant,” “intolerant,” “bigoted” people – those hicks and rubes – who refuse to get “on the right side of history.” – Robert George

Ah yes, the insufferable sanctimony of useful idiots! Stupid people will say or do almost anything to be flattered.

I believe that gay couples deserve the same legal rights as every other couple in this country. – Barack Hussein Obama

Homosexuals have, and have always had, “the same legal rights” as normal Americans. They can, and always could, get married. Marriage, however, is the union of one man and one woman. So, a homosexual who wants to marry must marry someone of the opposite sex. No law prevents this.

Normal Americans must reject the gay lobby’s dishonest assertion that homosexuals cannot get married. It’s a lie, like everything else they say and do.

Preserve the Union!

Protecting the definition of marriage is not merely permissible, but actually necessary as a matter of justice. Having laws that affirm the vital importance of mothers and fathers—laws that reinforce, rather than undermine, the ideal that children should be raised by their own mother and father—is essential for any just society. Those laws serve not only the good of the spouses and their children, but the common good. Those laws are now under relentless attack. If we forget the meaning of marriage, we forget what it means to be a human person, what it means to be a man or a woman. – Timothy Dolan

Defense of Marriage

Marriage is the union of a man and a woman. Anything else is a farcical counterfeit.

Same-sex marriage is not a justice issue. It’s an injustice issue. It’s an attack — by truly evil and twisted people — on legitimate marriage and authentic families.

Vive la difference!

“It is essential that the Church announce the truth about the conjugal union between one man and one woman, which is, by its very nature, exclusive, indissoluble, and ordered to the procreation of offspring.” – Archbishop Raymond Burke, prefect of the Supreme Court of the Apostolic Signature

What’s wrong is wrong. Legalizing error doesn’t make it right.

The laws and constitution of the State of Texas define marriage as an institution involving one man and one woman. Today’s ruling purports to strike down that constitutional definition–despite the fact that it was recently adopted by 75% of Texas voters. The Office of the Attorney General will appeal the court’s ruling to defend the traditional definition of marriage that was approved by Texas voters. – Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott

Homosexuals cannot get divorced because they cannot get married. Marriage is the union of a man and a woman. Anything else is a farcical counterfeit. End of story.

Same-sex marriage is not a justice issue. It’s an injustice issue. It’s an attack — by truly evil and twisted people — on legitimate marriage and authentic families.

Vive la difference!

Preserve the union!
