(In a thread asking why conservatives care about gay marriage.)

It devalues the importance of the family unit. In my opinion a society should endorse the natural family unit as it leads to a strong and productive society. What is productive about homosexuality? It weakens society, it takes the emphasis of marriage away from being a gift for human production, rearing and ultimately human domination of the earth and its resources and switches it to that of hedonistic and self serving pleasure. It puts an individual's desires above anything else and forgets about humanity as a whole. It pits love against humanity, and it ultimately will lead to the destruction of love. People are going to stop loving other people. Man will stop loving woman if it is not emphasized to man that the his role is not his own pleasure..but the betterment of all humanity even at his displeasure.

It's insulting to me as a man to think that another man might think that he can love a man with the same intensity that I can love my wife. No man will ever love another man more deeply than I will love my wife. To think homosexual love is as strong as heterosexual love is insulting to what it means to be human. To be man and woman. Man belongs with woman and woman with man. Without man and woman there are no people. I love woman so deeply that I might become another person with her, put another being on this earth that is me and her, our creation. No two men can say that. You could never understand that love, to look at another person and realize it is not another person. It is something I could never say about another man and myself. If homosexual love is all about individual rights, then it is a lesser love. It is a selfish love. It is not love, not as heterosexual love..which is all about the non individuals rights. The other's rights.

It is an insult to my wife and children to think that what you have is anything close to what I will have.

It's a slap in the face to all the pairs of man and woman that even allowed you to exist to be here to read this. You insult your own blood.

Life is not about self serving pleasure, some of us are actually trying to push us forward. People want to chase hedonistic pleasures but life is not about your self, or your pleasures. People complain that life is hard, and that it is unfair. That your self is being neglected. Good. Life is supposed to be hard. You are supposed to suffer. It is not about you. That is what has made us the greatest species in this history of consciousness. Yet some think our position is certain, or that we have arrived, and can fall into hedonism and pleasure focused living. Like there is no room to improve. No. There is plenty of work, the human journey just started. This is not the end, this is the beginning. Life is a constant battle. Humans are very easily replaced. Some of you don't care to spread humanity, to continue pushing and fighting. I am not one of those people. And to those of us who aren't, it is both insulting to our efforts, and maybe an impediment even..

Humanity is not yet done evolving. But some of you are. You have no place in the future of humanity, it is why you can't reproduce. And it is why I can not accept.
