Exactly!

That is the whole point. Marital issues have nothing whatever to do with SSM.

Thank you .

The impetus was the repeated remarks about this from the fundies in random threads, but when asked for examples they went silent. So I decided to give them their own thread to show all their examples of how heterosexual marriage is being destroyed .


So far closing in on 125 posts and nothing from them . I mean, it's almost as if they were making the stuff up

I think after 125 posts and no examples of the ruination of heterosexual marriage, the point IS being made that their oft made claims are rubbish .

And that was the point of the thread . I don't think anyone expects to change the mind of a Viz, Jeff, or Eusie . All we want is to show them stammering and dodging on certain issues when attempting to defend their stance . And I believe there are readers that do take notice of such things as this , such as that the fundies are incapable of backing up their claims at each and every turn .

I asked what was wrong and she said " I don't know, but something just feels weird. Do you feel it?" I sat quietly for a minute, and then I said " yeah, I do. What is it". We couldn't figure it out. Then we decided that it felt like marriage sucked. We both said we still loved each other , but we could just tell our marriage was going downhill, rapidly. For what reason we simply could not figure out. We talked and talked, nothing seemed to have changed but something obviously had. We went to bed , hoping that things would be better in the morning, but they were even worse in the morning. Then when we watched the news we figured it all at .

THE GAYS WERE ALLOWED TO GET MARRIED NOW ALSO!

So THATS what the problem was! The gays destroyed marriage, and that's what we had felt. We even did some checking, and sure enough, right at the time we felt the BOOM!, it turns out a gay couple had said "I do". And BAM! , just ruined it.

So , we realize the only hope for heterosexual marriage in America is to pass new laws against gay marriage, so heterosexual marriages can return to normal. And we must do this for our kids as well! My daughter called that very day crying. She and her fiancée were planning their marriage, but they too realized that there is no point now. The gays have ruined it for everyone.


We have learned that we are not the only happily married heterosexual couple to have their marriage destroyed by gay marriage , and sadly that many other young couples have had to give up on the hope of marriage due to the gays destroying it for us all. So , all of you brave Americans, please feel free to share your stories about how gay marriage has destroyed yours , and your childrens and grandchildrens hopes for the kind of happy heterosexual marriage we all had before the gays got to have the same rights to get married as we do.

We hope to save our blessed heterosexual marriage from the ravaging effects of gay marriage through counseling, and our counselor tells us that they are all overwhelmed with requests for appointments from heterosexuals suffering the same fate as us now that gay marriage is destroying heterosexual marriages across America. At the same time there are numerous reports of heterosexual couples canceling their weddings because it is pointless now that gays can get married also.

We must act NOW to save heterosexual marriage from complete ruin and even extinction as a result of two gay or lesbian people being allowed the same rights that were once the exclusive province of heterosexuals.

It relates perfectly to this forum.

It exposes the hypocrisies of many holier-than-thou Christian posters.

We without blinders on, know who they are.

Fundamentalist Christians are saying gay marriage is immoral and destroys the sanctity of marriage. We are asking them to give us examples of how gay marriage has harmed heterosexual marriages. This thread is in exactly the right place.

125 posts and you have presented absolutely nothing to convince me that SSM is moral and good for society.
