[Vision2020] Re: The definitive bottom line on "gay marriage"......

Chas,
 
Marriage has always been a profound and binding social contract.  To  allow 
anyone to marry when they have no need to do so, when the contract was not  
initially conceived with them in mind, would be to lower the uniqueness of  
marriage to the point of irrelevancy.
 
Is not the real goal behind this push simply to access spousal benefits and  
the like?
 
To preserve the benefits of marriage to those for whom such benefits were  
intended and tailored, is appropriate.
 
If we allow those engaged in unnatural and unhealthy pairings to marry,  what 
would prevent someone from demanding the right to marry their sister or  
their cocker spaniel?
 
We need to remember that certain behaviors are inappropriate.  We are  still 
bound to politely tolerate them, but we are hardly bound to  champion and 
celebrate them.
 
Best,    --Tony
