This is a dangerous compromise that no people of faith should be engaging in. Right is right, wrong is wrong. Marriage is ultimately for the creation and protection of children; between a male and a female; not between two sodomites. For hundreds of years that’s been the case. The “hate crimes” legislation makes a Christian a hatemonger; this entire movement is an attack on Christianity and Judaism and the family unit; which is already broken for so many kids in our culture.
Why on earth would a pro family organization put out an ad with actual language from the social justice crowd in it?
As Peter said on his blog referring to how this is selling traditional marriage down the river-
We who claim to follow God are lacking in integrity if we promote the normalization of homosexuality as part of some (perhaps well-intentioned) utilitarian plan to ostensibly “save†traditional marriage. Indeed, the irony of the ad text above is that progressive concessions on “domestic partnership†and “civil unions†legislation will, in fact, dismantle traditional marriage. Yes on 1 PR consultant Frank Schubert’s compromising spin will pave the way for disaster in the pro-family movement, as it undermines our greatest strength: our commitment to the truth. It’s time to reject Political Correctness and get back to basics in the pro-family movement. — Peter LaBarbera, www.americansfortruth.org
Yes, with the advent of FISTGATE’s Kevin Jennings as “safety czar” in schools, this movement has gained unbelievable momentum and the language has infested even those claiming to save our traditional values.
Matt Barber:
“Many behind the ‘Yes on 1’ campaign, rather than simply telling the truth, chose the Neville Chamberlain approach. They merely circled the wagons around the word ‘marriage,’ even suggesting that ‘domestic partnerships’ (‘gay marriages’ by another name) are acceptable. This makes no sense. If that’s a viable compromise, then why not simply allow ‘gay’ duos the word ‘marriage’? It’s an incongruity that demands an explanation. This is an historic battle for the minds and souls of our children –– for our very culture. The mealy-mouthed approach must end. This is not just about ‘marriage.’ It has everything to do with forced affirmation of homosexuality – under penalty of law. Indeed everyone who fought hard to defend marriage in Maine is to be congratulated, but if it weren’t for a brave group of truth tellers – Paul Madore, Peter LaBarbera and Brian Camenker –– who came to Maine in the final hour to hold a press conference and address the pink elephant in the room –– homosexual deviancy and the radical ‘gay’ agenda –– counterfeit marriage might have prevailed.â€
