Good arguments against same-sex marriage.

The main reasons to oppose same-sex marriage (incorrectly referred to as gay marriage by just about everyone) are:

1. Same-sex marriage will do irreparable damage to male/female distinctions. The great thing about marriage is that it combines a man with a woman. Women and men are very different and, since most marriages result in children, a child should have the best chance possible to have both a mother and a father. A mom and a dad each give something to children that two men or two women can't. But if the distinctions between male and female are torn down, then legally opposite sex couples cannot be favored by adoption agencies. Children who are put up for adoption should have the right to go, if at all possible, to opposite sex couples. The argument that denying same-sex couples from marriage is the same as denying inter-racial couples from marrying is silly. There is no difference between a black human being and a white human being; male/female differences, however, are huge.

2. No civilization in history, secular or religious, has ever recognized same-sex marriage. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, the secular men of the Enlightenment, none of them have ever recognized same-sex marriage. And a "handful" of lefties think they are more wise than every civilization that has come before? That's hubris, folks. Conversely, every major religion in history have recognized inter-racial marriage. When many parts of the US banned inter-racial marriage, they were at odds with Christianity, Judaism and every other religion on Earth.

3. What do you think will happen in sex education classes if same-sex marriage is allowed? By law you will have to not only explain what a man and woman do sexually, but you will now have to explain, in graphic detail, what men and men do sexually and what women and women do sexually. Kids are confused enough about sexuality. This would only make it worse.

4. Religious freedom will be in jeopardy. Sooner or later, if same-sex marriage is allowed, someone will sue a religious institution because it discriminates against same-sex marriage. Heaven knows how such court cases would be decided. So much for the so-called wall of separation if this happens.

The media and leftist groups tell us homosexuals can't marry unless we redefine marriage. It isn't true. Homosexuals have never been prevented from marrying in this country. Any homosexual man can marry a woman (provided she's willing) and any homosexual woman can marry a man. When you go and get a marriage license, they don't ask your sexual orientation.
