How do Civil Unions Harm Traditional Marriage
By Christopher Hansen
I have been asked by several of my Gay friends, and yes I have Gay friends, how do Civil Unions or Gay marriages harm traditional marriages. I always like to answer such questions with questions so I ask: How does pornography, child pornography, gambling, adultery, fornication, crime, political corruption, undeclared foreign wars, taxes that punish married couples, income taxes, and even paper fiat money harm heterosexual marriage or American society directly?
Some realize where that question leads but most do not. Most Christians that want to condemn homosexuals immediately to the fiery pits of Hell do not understand it either. The fact is the homosexual marriages or civil unions in and of themselves do practically nothing to the traditional marriage any more than two kids in a back seat having sex without the benefits of marriage harm traditional marriage. What harms the tradition marriage is not the act itself. It is the cumulative weight of what it does to society in general that causes the harm to traditional marriage and families as a whole.
Adultery, Gay sex, two kids in a back seat… when the weight of what naturally occurs occurs, and nature ensures it always does eventually, that is what destroys the traditional marriage by the shear weight of what it does to society. It is the costs that kill us. Have we not been warned that “The wages of sin is death”?
Sexually transmitted disease, unwanted pregnancy, abortion, divorce, unwanted children all burden society and when society is burdened then families are hurt. But the real criminal in all of this is not sexual immorality. It is the sin embraced by Christians and even called Christlike by many who are totally deceived by this Satanic plan. Call it what you will it is what destroys families in the long run as its weight, increased daily by the immorality of society, crushes families. It is what forces mothers into the work force instead of being at home. It is Socialism or Fascism or Communism or Corporatism. No matter what it is called it is the killer of families, not Gay marriage.
And how many “Good Christians” are practicing Socialists in America? Almost 100%.
The immoral acts of a few, if left to pay for themselves, would not harm families. But the overwhelming costs of paying for the immorality of others is what destroys families. Taxes are what we pay for an uncivilized (immoral) society.
In a Democracy the majority can vote to enslave others. In fact that is what Social Security does. It enslaves the young to pay for the old socialists. Income taxes enslave people to pay for corporate bailouts and undeclared foreign wars and welfare and medicare, and AIDS research and hospital care for people suffering from sexually transmitted disease, AID to single mothers and fathers, “free” government education programs, etc. All these and every other socialist program established to be a safety net for immoral activities burden the traditional family far more than two men having sexual relations and calling it a marriage. Such votes by the majority (and the majority in America according to Christian Churches and most polls are Christians) to enslave others through taxation will eventually lead to the destruction of society.
For example: Social Security encourages people to have less children because they will not need to depend upon their OWN children to care for them in their old age. But when there are eventually less young people because people stopped having children because they are relying on other people’s children enslaved by Social Security to pay for their medical care and daily expenses then the Socialist slavery system will collapse and cause financial ruin and many will suffer and die from starvation. That is simply a matter of time and that time is rapidly approaching.
I find adultery far more detrimental to society than homosexual marriages but you do not hear the Christian community screaming for the government to make adultery criminal because they could get punished and the Christians only want the evil homosexuals to be punished. Divorce used to be VERY difficult because of the costs to society, especially if there were children involved. But now so-called Christians divorce and remarry at will and the costs of their always damaged children are placed upon society.
The Evil of Marriage Licenses
I find marriage licenses for heterosexual couples far more dangerous than homosexual marriages because they make the government a part of those marriages. And yet we see so-called Christians clamoring to get marriage licenses, that now MUST contain a Socialist Security number, to wed in order to enter into an unholy union of man, wife and State. And together the three of them can become one contracted enslaved party. Is that really what Christ wanted when He told us to become ONE flesh? Those aren’t crumbs in your marriage bed, they are are chains.
What Happened to Jury Trials?
Have you ever wondered why they no longer have jury trails for divorces? They used to.
In Nevada a divorce is a civil matter. The Nevada Constitution REQUIRES jury trials for all civil cases unless waived by BOTH parties. But there has not been a jury trial for a marriage in Nevada for over 50 years. Why? Because when a person asks the State for a government benefit then the judicial system ends and administrative due process (particularized tribunals) begins. And there are no jury trials in administrative hearings.
Interestingly enough if two people live together in what used to be a Common Law Marriage (as all non-interracial marriages once were in the USA) and they have a contract that says that neither one of then can have sex with any other person, and then one of those people violates that contract, then they can have a jury trial.
But such jury trials are denied to couples with marriage licenses. You see the marriage license, you as a Christian or Jew or Muslim clamored to get, stole your rights to a jury trial because you voluntarily asked for a government created benefit. Marriage is no longer a Religious act but a government created privilege. Did you know that even ministers have to obtain a license to marry a couple that has a marriage license?Did you sell your birthright for a mess of pottage?
Perhaps this United States Supreme Court case can clear this up for you. Just remove the word Congress and put in the words Nevada State Legislature.
[W]hen Congress establishes a statutory right, it clearly has the discretion, in defining that right, to create presumptions, or assign burdens of proof, or prescribe remedies; it may also provide that persons seeking to vindicate that right must do so before particularized tribunals created to perform the specialized adjudicative tasks related to that right. Such provisions do, in a sense, affect the exercise of judicial power, but they are also incidental to Congress’ power to define the right that it has created. No comparable justification exists, however, when the right being adjudicated is not of congressional creation. In such a situation, substantial inroads into functions that have traditionally been performed by the Judiciary cannot be characterized merely as incidental extensions of Congress’ power to define rights that it has created. Rather, such inroads suggest unwarranted encroachments upon the judicial power of the United States, which our Constitution reserves for Art. III courts.
That explanation is found in Northern Pipeline Const. Co. v. Marathon Pipe Line Co. 458 U.S. 50, 83-84, (1982)
Separation of Church and State?
Ask yourself: If there is a separation of church and state, as the courts claim, how can the state license the religious ceremony of marriage? How can it license a minister to preside over such a marriage? Is that not an establishment of a religion? Is it not forcing Christians to ask the government if they can become one flesh?
Family Court in Nevada is a particularized tribunal established by the Nevada Legislature. It is established to STEAL away your right to a jury trial if your spouse violates your marriage contract because the State is now a part of that contract. You see you asked them for a legislatively created right and so they set ALL the rules and all Constitutionally guaranteed rights are completely set aside. And you always thought the two of you were alone in your bed at night. Think again. The State is right there with you. No wonder your wife has a headache or your husband is too tired.
So why does the government want Civil Unions or marriages for Gay couples? Money and power of course. They need to deny Gays the right to a jury trial and to collect fees from the Gay community just like they did to enslave the heterosexual community. And the Gays sold their freedom for a license as fast as they could and cheered as they did it.
But then that is how freedom is always lost. Slaves cheering for their own slavery.
And how is it so easy accomplished? Because Christians clamor to the government to force their religion on others. So the government obliges. Christians LOVE socialism. Christians practice Socialism. Christians clamor for Socialism. And in doing so they enslave the same people that asked for the government’s protection, themselves. Any government with the power to protect your religious beliefs and force them on others has the power to take them away.
Homosexuality does not directly harm traditional marriage any more than Senator Ensign committing adultery harms MY traditional marriage. But when adultery is common place it places greater burdens upon society. So do illegitimate children. But cries of, “It’s for the children” tug at the heart strings of women and weak men who want others to ensure that their children’s medical care and education and free lunches and etc. are paid for by the government. It is theft by democracy supported by Christians. This is what destroys families. Not Gays getting marriage licenses.
Homosexual unions or marriage, that will of course be combined with socialism and it “benefits” (this is a KEY factor), will just move society closer to destruction. It is not the Gay marriage that will harm the family. It is the socialist benefits that so-called Christians established for themselves, that the Gays now demand, that will cause the destruction of both traditional marriage and society.
So Christians, blame your own greed and voluntary slavery not “Homos” and “Fags” for demanding the same socialist benefits you have demanded for yourselves and that Gays have had to pay for in taxation for decades. Christians have been stealing from the Gays for a long time and now they just want to have their fair share of Christian Created Socialism. What goes around comes around and Christian theft through socialism is coming around and Christians do not like the costs. Well… you get what you asked for.
So who is really to blame for all this immoral homosexual behavior and demands for Civil Unions and Gay marriages? The answer is obvious:

The things presented here are meat, not really milk, but they are presented in a fairly thorough way so that I think most semi-intelligent folks who read it can understand. And they NEED to hear it, and feel guilty for allowing their minds to become so indoctrinated back when they went to the government-run indoctrination camps called public schools. Of course they were children then, so for that they are not culpable, but they are adults now, and should know better. They should know that socialism is the devil’s delight, and they need to fight it now.
