If only God had made Adam & Steve, instead of Adam & Eve

In Let Gays Marry, Andrew Sullivan responds to conservative objections to same-sex matings, by arguing that allowing such unions would actually promote traditional values, such as fidelity, monogamy, and love. It should logically appeal to straight conservatives, who deplore merry male promiscuousness, that the declaration of Supreme Court A state cannot deem a class of persons a stranger to its laws, now assigns equal rights to gays and lesbians.Andrew Sullivan is a aged(a) editor at The New Republic, a magazine he edited from 1991 to 1996, and the U. S. columnist for the Sunday times of London. He has a B. A. in modern history and modern languages from Oxford University and a Ph. D. in political comprehension from Harvard University. He lives in Washington, D. C. The real problem is that there are really only three arguments against gay marriage One is rooted in entirely Gods preferences, the second cites inconclusive research on its banish effects on children, and third, th e integrity of a marriage as a legal document.Sullivan effectively presents his slip of paper in a very logical fashion, calmly displaying his billets, and using a statement declared by the United States Supreme Court, under which no gay men or lesbians will be considered strangers in America. They (Gays) are charitable beings just like you and I, the sons and daughters of countless mothers and 2 fathers, and should birth the same opportunities to pursue felicitousness by marrying the one that they love. A natural process, where two plenty fall in love and patch up to get married, is not any different for gay people.Therefore legalizing gay marriages does not provide gays with any limited rights or place in America, but instead people will consider them to be an equal part of the society. The main idea is homosexuals should have the right to get married legally. Sullivan does not indispensableness churches to make any interchange in their practice, but to allow everyone to be who he/she is, a tenet that the United States was created on. Plus, the concept of marriage has changed within the past one hundred years.The inter-caste and the inter-religion marriages which were once prohibited or forbidden mingled with couples, has now become socially acceptable. Gay marriages do not change anyone elses rights or marriages in any way. Marriage is not just about raising children because the fact that many notability childless heterosexual couples exist in todays society, such as Bob Dole and his wife Elizabeth Dole, and so forth Sullivan concludes by telling the general public to accept homosexual marriages and the fact that they will not be the turning point for the d witnessfall of all society.Although I agree with Sullivan when he says, legalizing gay unions would not change anyones right to marriage, I find Bennetts view more powerful, that it would weaken the first appearance of marriage, and contradict natural, moral, religious, and sexual realities . after reading Sullivans article, I interrogation his credibility, as he didnt provide enough evidence to get his point through. His approach toward his readers is with a lot of pathos, rather than logos.For example, when he states And what we 3 seek is not a particular place in America o give back to our society, it is not clear as to what he means by giving back. When he argues about the definition of marriage, Sullivan fails to see the change, which was brought about for the welfare of the people (inter-caste marriages, inter-religion marriages, etc. ), consisted of a man and a woman, not two men, or two women. I would have agreed to the assertion, the most simple, the most natural, and the most human instinct, if it was used to prove the relationship between a male and a female. But using it to persuade about the same sex marriage doesnt cheer me up.To answer the question of whether gay and lesbian couples should have the right to marry, the question of why the institution of marriage is valued so dearly in society today must be answered. To do this, the meaning of the word marriage must be found, remembering that there are different levels in which marriage can be interpreted and/or evaluated. As with many other issues, when one tries to furbish up the word marriage and its repercussions in society, several fundamental questions arise that must be answered in arrange to get a better understanding of the issue in question.Questions like What is marriage defined as? In Websters Dictionary, marriage is defined as The institution whereby men and women are joined in special kind of social and legal dependence for the purpose of founding and maintaining a family. This concept seems to have been perpetuated throughout history, one man and one woman joined till death do them part. Keeping the supra points in view, same sex marriages defy the laws of Christianity, and it is immoral in the eyes of society.Homosexuality in virtually all countries has been lo oked down upon, and sometimes condemned. This opposition stems from the Holy 4 Bible. The couple in the garden of promised land was a man and a woman, not two men or two women. If God think two men or two women to be together, he would have put them in the Garden of Eden, giving them both the ability to have children. But that didnt happen. God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve, for the facts of life of life.God wanted man and woman to reproduce with one another in order for the human race to continue. Today, adoption has taken a turn for the worse Gay and Lesbian couples who cannot have their own children are adopting kids. I see this as one of the concerned problems. What kind of message are these kids acquiring? That homosexuality is all right. Moreover, the impact of this move can be devastating on the children as they rebel up. For example, they might have to face a lot of challenges, like people taunting them, name calling, fashioning fun, etc.Homosexuality is reje cted by all major religions around the globe, but Andrew Sullivan still believes that promiscuity in homosexual relationships can show heterosexual couples that adultery doesnt have to end their marriage. The Bible states, Leviticus 2013 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Thus, a 4000 year old book had an answer to the question being asked today. i. e. = Same Sex Marriage Ethical or Unethical?
