On March 7, the voters of the State of California will decide whether to close a loophole in the marriage laws that would force California to accept marriages from other states with different definitions of what marriage is. The question of why there shouldn t be same sex marriage will arise in many voters minds. We tend to forget that God created Adam and Eve to be life mates and have children, certainly not Adam and Steve. Also, secular studies have shown the need for children to have role models of what it means to be a father and mother. Children don t thrive on sexual confusion.
Parents teach children each gender s unique attributes and the ways they view and react to life.
California is not alone in trying to define marriage as solely a union between a man and a woman. In 1996, Democrats and Republicans in Congress overwhelmingly passed a bill saying that the U.S. government defines marriage as between a man and a woman only, and said each state could do the same. President Clinton signed the bill the day after he received it. Now it s our turn. It s our state, it should be our choice.
