17 high school girls at Gloucester High School are expecting children out of the bonds of wedlock.  What could have caused this lapse in family values among the Catholic community?  I’m sure it has nothing to do with the Church’s stand against contraception… No.

Clearly allowing gays to marry in California has undermined the otherwise strong sense of family values in this country.  I mean, just look at these activists spewing their hatred and venom all over the sacred institution of marriage.  If only they cared about marriage as much as heterosexuals who respect it enough to stay married about half of the time.

In all seriousness, right-wing moralists (who are often just as bad as the nanny-state lefties) should worry about the log in their own eye before they complain too much about the splinter in the eye of the gay community.  To put it in Jesus’ words.  Of course, Jesus spent his time with hookers and tax collectors so I’m not sure he’d be welcome in the Westboro Baptist Church.

I have no problem with gay marriage although I do find many gay activists petty and a bit silly.  I do have a problem, however, with overreaching government involvement in marriage.  Tell me again why I would need a license to get married and why Big Brother should have any say at all about who I choose to make a vow to before God, family or The Love Guru?

Wow, I never thought I would tell you that I agree with you entirely.

Nicely said.

I agree with your consistency.

Thanks for writing this post, Wiley Cody. We may disagree on a wide range of subjects, but every once in a while it becomes more than evident that we DO have common ground and reminds you that perhaps we shouldn’t spend so much time bickering and spend more of our efforts finding that more common ground.
