Redefining things is exactly what this problem does not need. We have arrived at the present situation because a very few vocal malcontents decided that definitions that successfuly accomodated the cultural interests of the civil majority for the past ten centuries now suddenly don't cater to their particular tastes, and therefore must be discarded.
Blackstone's Commentaries effectively outlines the philosophy and basis for English common law from seventeenth and eighteenth century England, which also served as the foundational basis for establishing eighteenth century colonial laws in the US. Where we have departed from this historic common-sense approach in response to demands of a few vocal dissidents, the application of sound legal principles has suffered. But it seems things have never been so badly off the track as they are now. We now have many situations where the purported legal "right" to moral depravity overrules decency and common sense. The inmates have truly taken over the asylum. The solution is to restore and respect the traditional definitions that have served the interests of the majority for hundreds of years, not to invent new ones that attempt to serve the demands of a miserable few. This will always be a futile pursuit. In the case of those who wish to engage in homosexual behavior, it is obvious that being "married" will never grant them what they crave. As Alma asserts, "wickedness never was happiness". ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /// ZION LIST CHARTER: Please read it at /// /// http://www.zionsbest.com/charter.html /// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// --^---------------------------------------------------------------- This email was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?aaP9AU.bWix1n.YXJjaGl2 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For Topica's complete suite of email marketing solutions visit: http://www.topica.com/?p=TEXFOOTER --^----------------------------------------------------------------
