The Bible alone does not have to be used to demonstrate this understanding of marriage-(as we know it ). The biblical viewpoint of marriage has been the universal understanding of marriage in every human civilization in world history. History argues against gay marriage (Count how many of those marriages were there say 20yrs ago,to be conservative). Modern secular psychology recognizes that men and women are psychologically and emotionally designed to complement one another. In regard to the family,psychologists contend that a union between a man and woman in which both spouses serve as good gender role models is the best environment in which to raise well-adjusted children. Psychology argues against gay marriage. In nature/physicality,clearly,men and women were designed to 'fit'(plug and socket concept) together sexually. With the 'natural' purpose of sexual intercourse being procreation,clearly only a sexual relationship between a man and a woman can fulfill this purpose.With this,nature argues against gay marriage.
So,if the Bible,history,psychology,and nature all argue for marriage being between a man and a woman—why is there such a controversy today? Why are those who are opposed to gay marriage/same-sex marriage labeled as hateful,intolerant bigots,no matter how respectfully the opposition is presented? Why is the gay rights movement so aggressively pushing for gay marriage/same-sex marriage when most people,religious and non-religious,are supportive of—or at least far less opposed to—gay couples having all the same legal rights as married couples with some form of civil union?
The answer is that everyone inherently knows that gayism(concept) is immoral and unnatural..so the only way to suppress(sp) this inherent knowledge is to normalize it and attacking any and all opposition to it.The truth is rejected and replaced with a lie. The lie is then promoted and the truth suppressed and attacked. The vehemence and anger expressed by many in the gay rights movement to any who oppose them is,in fact,an indication that they know their position is indefensible.
