Marriage Celebrant hands back licence: no to homosexual marriage

Image
Because I reject the definition of “marriage” which was rammed through by the politicians last year – what I call an ‘act of cultural vandalism’ – I have resigned as a state-sanctioned Marriage Celebrant . I understand and accept that other celebrants will not agree with my stance. I respect their conscience on this important issue. However, I will still promote marriage, and will perform marriage ceremonies for couples wanting to marry. I believe in the purpose and covenant of marriage – but it will be marriage between a man and a woman, as defined by culture, history and nature; not defined by politicians and political correctness . The couple can simply choose to go to the local registry office before or after the wedding if they wish to register their marriage in the eyes of the state and receive the state’s recognition and benefits (if there are any benefits left!) But it would be wrong of me to allow myself to be appointed by the state to carry out that duty while rejecting...

Homosexual Marriage is about love isn't it?

Image
Same Sex Marriage (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) What is the primary reason the state endorses marriage? Are all kinds of sexual contact the same? Is sexual contact ever unhealthy and/or unloving? What is “loving” about medically -destructive sexual contact? You can’t evaluate whether same-sex marriage is a good idea or not unless you know why the government endorses marriage in the first place. It is impossible to judge the means unless you know the intended ends.  So what is the government’s main purpose for endorsing marriage? What ends are they trying to accomplish? Contrary to what homosexual activists assume, the government does not endorse marriage because two people love one another. There is no little box on a marriage license that you must check labeled “ in love .” In fact, many, if not a majority, of marriages around the world are arranged.  While it is true that we often associate marriage with love, the primary reason the government endorses marriage is be...

What homosexuals wants but will not achieve

Image
Agenda, the homosexuals want acceptability, recognition, and approval. Homosexuals want others in society to think like them (and behave like them?).  They are working hard to change moral, social, and political opinion to be more in line with what they want.  They are not content to be what they want to be.  They want others to accept them.  They want others opinions to change and conform to their ideology and behavior .  What gives them the right to try and change society into what they want it to be? Animal kingdom:  Homosexuality occurs in the animal world; therefore, it is natural Saying that homosexuality is natural because it occurs in the animal kingdom does not mean it is morally correct.  Animals also eat each other alive, devour offspring, etc.  Should we imitate those things as well because the animals do it?  Of course not. From an evolutionary perspective how does homosexuality further the development and distribution...

Homosexual want to turn confused kids gay

Image
The immoral Bisexual flag and Gay flag put together (Alphabetical order, "Bisexual" before "Homosexual".)  What happens now if children grow up in a society that overtly teaches that homosexual partnering is not "just as good as" but actually is marriage? Once this is regarded as settled law, anyone who tries to teach children to aspire to create a child-centered family with a father and a mother will be labeled as a bigot and accused of hate speech . Can you doubt that the textbooks will be far behind? Any depictions of "families" in schoolbooks will have to include a certain proportion of homosexual " marriages " as positive role models. Television programs will start to show homosexual "marriages" as wonderful and happy (even as they continue to show heterosexual marriages as oppressive and conflict-ridden). The propaganda mill will pound our children with homosexual marriage as a role model . We know this will happ...

Marriage Equality results in limits of freedom of speech and religion.

Image
English: Kevin Rudd, 26th Prime Minister of Australia. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Homosexual marriage was not just going to be about private liberty, public tolerance, and equality. There is a growing awareness that homosexual marriage is also about limits on freedom of speech and religion.  The marriage equality advocates useage of bigotry seeks to silence dissent by abusing people and labeling them as haters. With respect, this is the reason why Prime Minister Kevin Rudd will lose the election. He will allow the nation to be divided by being manipulated by a group of self centered people who demand their rights at the cost of the rest of the nation.  This very small group of people are seeking change marriage if not by force but by refusing to back down even after three bills failed. If that fails they will continue to live in defacto relationship and seek to use 'marriage' as a tool for equality, whereas in reality, it will only reinforce attitudes that they are not...

UK 3 year old taught immoral homosexual sin marriage in kindergarden

Image
In Great Britain the consequences of gay marriage become ever clearer . Parents of a 3 year old boy came forward to say state-sponsored child care workers told their son he could marry a boy or a girl. The letter said: "Many of your commentators have speculated as to what the wider implications of allowing same-sex marriages will be on society." "I was given a stark illustration of this at the weekend." "In response to my three-year-old son's question as to what marriage was, I told him that it was when a man and woman loved each other very much and wanted to spend their lives together." "My son then told me that 'boys' could get married, too. As he doesn't read the newspapers, I was keen to understand how he had formed this view." "Apparently, his carer at nursery, a homosexual, told the entire class that he had great news: when they grew up, they could get married to a girl, or a boy." "Surely, my son is too yo...

Will homosexual marriage change traditional marriage

Image
Rainbow flag. Symbol of gay pride. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Long before same-sex marriage , no-fault divorce and birth control drastically shaped attitudes about marriage by eroding social stigmas against unmarried parenting, cohabitation, and sex outside marriage.  Gay marriage may be a big step, but it's only the next step in a staircase that doesn't end here. And with each new step, we see that you can't change the definition of marriage for some but not others.  No-fault divorce, as we can see from history, didn't force anyone to get divorced . But it removed permanence from the definition of marriage and pressured everyone, including churches, to rethink their views on biblical teaching.  Likewise, gay marriage does not force anyone to become gay. But it cements the already popular belief that marriage has nothing to do with creation or procreation. Related articles Homosexual marriage can't be compared with interracial marriage (gaychrist...

Group seeking support for legal recognition of polyamorous ‘marriage’ in New Zealand

Image
English: Category:Images of Salt Lake City (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) AUCKLAND , New Zealand ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - Just one week after the passage of gay ‘marriage’ legislation in New Zealand, it has been revealed that a group has been formed whose goal is to have group marriages recognised in law . The group, which has a Facebook page entitled “Support legalised Polyamory in NZ ”, says “We are supporters of the legal recognition of Polyamorous marriage in NZ. By ‘Polyamorous marriage’ we mean – responsible, adult, committed non-monogamy ( Plural marriage of any gender) marriage or union.” “We believe that ALL committed loving relationships between adults regardless of number should be respected and given legal acknowledgement” they go on to say. The group was highlighted recently in the popular New Zealand news site Stuff. Pro-family advocates have often argued that legalizaing gay ‘marriage’ will lead inevitably to the acceptance and recognition in law of polygamous, p...

Keep the Definition of Marriage as the Union of One Man and One Woman

Image
By Peter Sprigg Why is marriage the union of one man and one woman? The primary public purpose of marriage is to bring together men and women for reproduction of the human race . Marriage then encourages men and women to stay together to raise the childrenproduced by their union. Research shows that children do best when raised by their own mother and fatherwho are committed to one another in marriage. What harm would homosexual "marriage" do? Several harms would result immediately: Homosexual relationships would be subsidized. All taxpayers, consumers, and businesses would be forced to provide financial benefits to homosexual couples. Children would be indoctrinated. Schools would teach children that homosexual relationships are an option fully equivalent to heterosexual ones. Freedom of conscience and religious liberty would be threatened. Faith-based organizations and individuals would be forced to compromise their beliefs, or be punished or driven from the public...

CIVIL GOVERNMENTS SHOULD DEFINE MARRIAGE FOR ALL CITIZENS excluding homosexual marriages

Image
Cover via Amazon Defin ing and regulating marriage fits the purposes of government according to the Bible Among the most important purposes of civil government , according to the Bible, are (1) to restrain evil, (2) to bring good to society , and (3) to bring order to society. In all three of these grounds, a Christian should conclude that it is right for government to define and regulate marriage. First, marriage restrains evil by promoting sexual faithfulness between a man and a woman, by establishing a legally binding commitment for parents to care for their children, by establishing a legally binding commitment for spouses to be financially responsible for and to care for one another, and by providing a legal protection to keep women from being exploited by men who might otherwise enjoy a sexual relationship for a time and then abandon a woman and any children she may have borne from that union. Second, marriage brings good to society in multiple ways—in promoting socia...
