Just who do contemporary homosexuals think they ARE, pushing to redefine the most fundamental criteria--one man and one woman--of marriage which has been the very bedrock of civilizations, societies, and the regeneration of life itself????

Thousands of years ago, marriage was about PROPERTY - as in the women who were PROPERTY of their husbands. It was about landowners teaming up - or kingdoms forming alliances.
Heck, even today we haven't totally eradicated the whole bit about arranged marriages and other forced pairbonding in some parts of the world!
We have redefined marriage in comparatively RECENT times to mean two people who love each other.. And, let's face it, until not long ago, a woman couldn't exactly say no to a proposal in most places.
