"Pure sophistry is pitted against reason. Reason is losing."
by Rick aka Mr. Brutally Honest
A gay guy speaks out against... gay marriage:
http://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2013/03/9622/
In our sometimes misguided efforts to expand our freedom, selfish adults
have systematically dismantled that which is most precious to children as
they grow and develop. That’s why I am now speaking out against same-sex
marriage.
By the way, I am gay.
A few days ago I testified against pending same-sex marriage legislation
in Minnesota’s Senate Judiciary and House Civil Law Committees.
The atmosphere at these events (I’ve also testified elsewhere) seems
tinged with unreality—almost a carnival-like surrealism. Natural law,
tradition, religion, intellectual curiosity, and free inquiry no longer play
a role in deliberations. Same-sex marriage legislation is defended solely
on grounds of moral relativism and emotions.
Pure sophistry is pitted against reason. Reason is losing.
Here’s the problem: The national discussion of same-sex marriage treats
the issue like a game of checkers, where opponents can quickly gain each
other’s pieces without much forethought about the consequences. This
unreflective view of the discussion has prevented any real debate.
In years past, defenders of marriage found it easy to win the battle on
the checker board. Appeals to religion and tradition won hands down almost
effortlessly. While same-sex marriage advocates argued for a more thoughtful
consideration of the topic, they were mostly just bulldozed over.
The tide has turned. Same-sex marriage proponents now have all the “
kings” on the board, and rule it. One only needs to consider media
headlines from the last few weeks. We are bombarded with approvals of same-
sex marriage. To the casual onlooker, not steeped in this issue, it would
seem that conservatism has embraced same-sex marriage. Each day brings fresh
news of Republican political elites, Fortune 500 companies, NFL members,
and even Dirty Harry himself, Clint Eastwood, throwing their support behind
genderless marriage.
The game we are actually playing is chess, not checkers. This sounds
confusing, because chess and checkers are played on the exact same sixty-
four square game board. Checkers is easy and it’s fast. It’s one of the
first games children learn how to play. Chess is hard, requiring thought
about the intended and unintentional consequences of every single move that
may or may not be made.
In developing their goals for policy and law, politicians often look no
further than the next election cycle. They’re concerned about votes.
Supporting same-sex marriage now looks like a winner for them.
It also looks like a winner for media outlets, concerned about revenues
and readership, and for large corporations, eager to polish their images and
create goodwill. Few of these outlets are interested in playing chess
because a quick win at checkers is more important to them.
The sense of urgency regarding same-sex marriage, now palpably frenetic,
is in itself a sign of our national discussion’s devolution into nothing
more than slogans and emotions.
...
Same-sex marriage will not expand rights and freedoms in our nation. It
will not redefine marriage. It will undefine it.
Do yourself, and society, a huge favor and read the whole thing.
Then pass it on.
It's the right thing to do. You do still believe in right things... do you
not? | m**c
