Same sex Marriage (week 3)

”THE FIRST COMMANDMENT that God gave to
Adam and Eve pertained to their potential for parenthood as husband and wife.
We declare that God’s commandment for His children to multiply and replenish
the earth remains in force. We further declare that God has commanded that the
sacred powers of procreation are to be employed only between man and woman,
lawfully wedded as husband and wife. THE FAMILY is ordained of God.
Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are
entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and
a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity.” - Proclamation to the World

This week we read the court proceedings of the SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
on gay marriage. They concluded that the right to marry is a fundamental right inherent in
the liberty of the person, and under the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the
Fourteenth Amendment couples of the same-sex may not be deprived of that right and that liberty.  
The judges against changing the law had this to say “The human race must procreate to survive.
Procreation occurs through sexual relations between a man and a woman.
When sexual relations result in the conception of a child, that child’s prospects are
generally better if the mother and father stay together rather than going their separate ways.
Therefore, for the good of children and society, sexual relations that can lead to procreation
should occur only between a man and a woman committed to a lasting bond.”  
To bad their voice was not heard.
