No source will be indisputable. To my understanding, GLBT can already be legally bound, but how do they separate? Is there a legal process to do that? Maybe we should be talking about divorce in the same breath as marriage? Also, who's last name do they use, and what about their children's last name? Do they pay alimony if they separate and are not the biological father or mother? There are many aspects to gay marriage/divorce that I don't understand. The GLBT as a community do not generally want to settle "till death do us part" with one partner. By extending marriage to their community won't help. I think we are opening up a can of worms, and once they escape they'll infect the whole society, like worms on the Internet, they spread their virus, shutting us down, whether we want their inflection or not. (Inflection: A turning or bending away from a course or position of alignment).
Look at what heterosexual immorality has done to the sanctity of marriage. The family is already weakened. There are many single parent families struggling to survive (and my heart goes out to them). There are many delinquent children, abused, neglected, misused. Whatever happened to the basic rights of children to be:
well bred
well fed
well led?Heterosexuals who abuse marriage are not right in doing so, but we seem to be stuck there.
However, there are many marriages that are working, and families that are strong, even though not perfect.
I guess my best indisputable argument/source would be the definition of inflection: A turning or bending away from a course or position of alignment. Pure marriage, where father and mother love each other, are loyal to each other, and who love and nurture their children: physically, spiritually, emotionally, would be the position of alignment for marriage. Once marriage is inflected by false educational ideas it begins to drift off into any and all directions. Alignment to me means aligned with something. Sort of like At-one-ment.
I think we can be aligned with the universe, and in sync with nature in the perfect world. I know life is life though, and many inflections alter our alignment with deity, but that's what I'm after.
LBGT marriage is thus an inflection.
