Why Homosexual Unions Are Not Marriages

Why Homosexual Unions Are Not Marriages

Today homosexual activists are demanding the legalization of same-sex â€œmarriage.â€ In some places they have even achieved this goal.

They assert that this is a matter of equality. If heterosexuals can marry people of the opposite sex, they argue, then equality demands that homosexuals be allowed to marry people of the same sex.

Many have found this argument compelling. Others have no objection to the idea of homosexual marriage. Both of these are grave signs. They reveal just how much damage the institution of marriage has already suffered.

Opponents of homosexual marriage argue that if marriage were redefined to include same-sex couples, then both marriage and families would suffer great damage. That is quite true, but marriage has already been greatly damaged or else the idea that two people of the same sex could marry each other wouldnâ€™t even be under discussion. The fact that it is shows that a large segment of the public does not understand the basics of marriage. They have forgottenâ€”or never knewâ€”what marriage is.
