Here are some quotes from different authors on the topic of preserving traditional marriage:
Michelle S.: "In Canada, speaking out against homosexuality is seen as a hate crime and can be cause for prosecution and possibly imprisonment. This trend has become ever more increasing in the United States as the homosexual advocates have placed the population into two categories, calling anyone who dares to disagree with them on the subject of homosexuality as "homopholic" or "intolerant.""
Cristina L.: "Gay right activists have the right to argue about having rights in this nation, however have they sat down to think how this will affect generations to come.......It's just very sad and it hurts me because by the time I become a full adult, I'll be afraid to raise kids. I'll be scared of how they'll turn out to be because of the influence this society will give them."
Eugene K.: "A male friendship is the best and strongest friendship there is, but homosexuals go against all male principles and turn that friendship into something perverted........children should not be taught about these alternative lifestyles beause they have a greater chance of partaking in these lifestyles, a negative for all humankind in the whole world."
Amy C.: "The example of a parent is often what the child will become......What then, can be expected from a child of a same-sex marriage?......Every child has the right to have a mother and a father. When we deny (them) this right we are nearly dooming many children to a life of hardship and failure."
Jennifer K.: "It is evident that if homosexuals desired the same values that are expressed in marriage, that many would be willing to take advantage of the ability to create a Civil Union..... the Netherlands, a country which openly recognizes same-sex matrimony, the statistics remain low..... only 2.8 percent of the homosexual population of the Netherlands opts to marry......it is apparent that homosexual couples do not desire the same type of commitment as expressed in a tradtitional view of marriage."
Kayla W.: "There have been studies done in other countries such as the Netherlands where same sex marriages are accepted. These studies suggest that same sex marriages produce an environment that is unsteady and unsuitable for children because the average male (homosexuals), even though married, has an average of eight other sexual partners per year."
Linda H.: "Same sex marriage is not based on the natural union of a man and woman to raise children for the good of society; it is based on adults satisfying their own dviant sexual desires.......The ongoing debate over same-sex marriage rarely mentions children, which is shameful because children have the most to lose..... Two women can be good mothers, but neither can be a good father, and the same goes for two men."
Emily C.: "If gays have a right to get married, then how can they say a man doesn't have to right to marry his daughter, or a minor or three women?........ States which choose to redefine marriage are making a mistake, and to enforce the teaching of the "redefined family concept" is going to harm students and society as a whole."
