It
Isn't Just About Gay Marriage, It's About Straight People Living
Together Now
The
radical conservative lobbying group Concerned Women for
America (CWA) issued a press release: "With over 50 percent
of couples cohabiting before they marry, and the disastrous impact
this is having on women and children, the president's marriage
initiative is a very positive development that he should continue
to push," said Dr. Janice Shaw Crouse, senior fellow of CWA's
think tank, the Beverly LaHaye Institute, and a former presidential
speechwriter.
"We
need a constitutional amendment that preserves marriage and prohibits
counterfeit marriage," said Robert Knight, director of CWA's Culture
& Family Institute. "As last year's sweep of ballot measures demonstrated,
Americans want to protect marriage, not create 'gay' marriage
by another name."
However,
this would mean that gay or straight people would not legally
be allowed to have a roomate... has the whole world gone mad?
These groups have been deciding what makes a "good Christian"
assuming that everyone should be one, in ever narrower terms.
I almost sounds a bit Taliban-ish when they insist that some parts
of the bible should be interpreted their way while completely
ignoring others. Does God speak to just them, letting them know
which parts of a book written by men are to be adhered to and
what are merely "suggestions"? We all know that many passages
of the bible can have many interpretations (if you decide to even
but stock in it) and it seems that it is more a matter of convenience
for these groups as to what parts they are willing to adhere by
and how they interpret them... "Though shall not kill was pertaining
to abortion and does not apply to men, women and children civilian
casualties dismissed as 'collateral damage.
It
would be nice if wealthy Christian groups would start focusing
on issues that do not impose on one's free speech, and liberties.
When will we as a country decide it is not all right for us to
have homelessness and extreme poverty? For example in Deuteronomy
15:11 it says- "For the poor shall never cease out of the
land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine
hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in
thy land."
Get
ready America... the conservatives think they are the majority
and the radical folks are ready to cast the first stone.
