Ibland är det roligt att höra hur den kristna högern i USA resonerar i viktiga samhällsfrågor såsom homosexuella äktenskap. Så av en ren händelse kom jag över en artikel som heter Why Homosexual ”Marriage” Hurts Us. Den var betydligt roligare än vad jag kunde ana. Nu har jag inte orkat läsa hela artikeln, men jag misstänker att detta money quote talar för sig själv:
…one reason why we must oppose same-sex “marriage.” The minute it is socially and legally accepted by society, we will all feel the enormous psychological pressure to renounce our moral and religious convictions.
We are not isolated individuals but social beings living together in society. What others think or do has an enormous if not decisive influence on us.
This can be seen, for example, in the force of fashion, peer pressure or political correctness that frequently leads individuals to change their convictions because they naturally follow whatever society as a whole appears to accept.
In a society where unnatural unions are presented as “normal,” we will personally feel the cruel pressure of public opinion being brought to bear against our Christian morality. Indeed, we feel this difficulty even now as the pro-homosexual movement forces same-sex “marriage” on the airwaves, the social pages of our newspapers, and the curricula of our schools.
Dvs vi måste motsätta oss homosexuella äktenskap för annars kommer vi kanske att ändra åsikt i frågan!
