Marriage

Yes - they're at it again. This time the Australian Greens want same-sex couples to have their "marriage" recognised. I'm sorry but as a citizen I think that's not a beneficial stance for society. And as a Christian the Bible is plain about not recognising this type of same-sex relationship as valid. Given that the Bible contains wisdom gathered over thousands of years, I'd prefer its policies over the current politically correct stance. The Australian Christian Lobby discusses here a Canadian example of what can occur if same-sex marriages are allowed by law. The same article also lists a number of reasons why a committed heterosexual marriage is beneficial to personal health, family, society and the economy. So yeah, call me a stubborn PK but there are some old-time values worth keeping.
