TREMORS

THE GAY DEBATE IS LIKE A HELMINTH THAT CAN'T RESIDE SATISFIED IN THE GUT. REPEATEDLY AND PREDICTABLY, IT ACTS OUT AND UP TO CREATE TERRIBLE INDIGESTION IN THE BODY POLITIC. 'TREMORS' INEVITABLY RESULT.

I AM TIRED OF THE WAR OF WORDS (AND AGENDAS) ON THE SUBJECT OF GAY MARRIAGE. THERE IS NOTHING GAY ABOUT IT. CONTENDERS ON EACH SIDE OF THE DEBATE TOSS OUT PHRASES FOR GAY JUSTIFICATION LIKE " 50% OUT OF WEDLOCK BIRTHS," "LIVED THROUGH THE PAIN OF DIVORCE," " DUPED INTO VOTING FOR THE MARRIAGE AMENDMENT," "PREVALENCE OF CO-HABITATION" AND THE "RIGHT TO SAME-SEX UNIONS." I WISH TO MAKE MYSELF PERFECTLY CLEAR UNLIKE SOME WRITERS WHO BEFUDDLE ME WITH OBFUSCATION ABOUT A "STATIC GLOOMY ICON" OR "SPANGLY FLIM-FLAM." TO RE-WORD THESE PHRASES, I CONTEND THAT POLITICAL CORRECTNESS WORSHIPS THE "PERMANENTLY DEPRESSING IDOL" OF GAY MARRIAGE; THE PUBLIC HAS HAD THE WOOL PULLED OVER THEIR EYES BY THE "SHINY DECEPTION" THAT LIFE CHOICES OF DEVIANT SEXUALITY DESERVE EQUAL STATUS WITH MARRIAGE AS AN INSTITUTION. MARRIAGE IS THE PERMANENT UNION OF A HUSBAND AND WIFE CENTERED AROUND THE POSSIBILITY OF CHILDREN. WHERE IN HOMOSEXUALITY OR LESBIANISM IS THERE - OR HAS THERE EVER BEEN - ANY CONCEPT OF VIRGINITY UNTIL MARRIAGE BETWEEN ‘ONE AND ONLY’ LOVERS? EVEN IF WE SET LOVE ASIDE OR ADMIT A DISREGARD FOR COMMITMENT, WE STILL MAY NOT REDEFINE A NATURAL INSTITUTION AS GAY. SOCIETY CANNOT AFFORD A PARASITIC WORM WIGGLING INSIDE IT, BECAUSE FOR ANY ORGANISM THIS CANNOT BE A GOOD THING.
