Text Box: He came in the setting of a traditional family: a married couple consisting of one male husband-father and one female wife-mother. In what setting did His Forerunner, John the Baptist, come? In the setting of a traditional family: a married couple consisting of one male husband and father and one female wife and mother.

In our civilization we have declared and outlawed a man having more than one wife at a time, and a woman having more than one husband at a time. We have declared and made legal marriage to consist of one man and one woman, saying such is normal, natural, and necessary for a stable society. If a man has more than one wife at a time, or a woman has more than one husband at a time, and the “family” has children, our laws provide that the children are to be taken away from the “family” and placed in the custody of the government under the care and supervision foster parents who are one male husband and one female wife. And the parents are put in jail for polygamy.

But now homosexual males who are living together and lesbian women who are living together wish to establish their relationships as being normal and as being a marriage. And they wish to become foster parents, adopt children, and occasionally they actually do; and they also become artificially impregnated - well the lesbians do - and give birth and raise the child born of the artificial impregnation. The homosexuals and lesbians are fighting to make these practices accepted by society - they already have made them accepted under the law in many places.

Obviously either the homosexual - lesbian position is insane, or the one male husband one female wife position is insane, for they are mutually exclusive. Since they support the un-natural, this means the one male with many wives or one female with multiple husbands situation must be acceptable to the homosexuals and lesbians because if they oppose traditional marriage and family they must accept polygamy as well.

Text Box: Lesbian “couples” complain that when one of them gives birth and the other one adopts the child, the birth certificate form has no provision for their situation and most often the word “father” is simply crossed out and the word “parent” inscribed over it for the adopting “parent”.. So the child has a mother and a parent but no father. Some lesbians want the birth certificates to change the designations from mother and father to birth parent and parent, or just parent and parent. When homosexuals adopt a child is the birth certificate changed to read father and parent?

Immorality is always foolish, stupid, insane, and freakish, but often has an aura or semblance of logic associated with it. But there is absolutely no logic associated with the homosexual “marriage”, lesbian “marriage” - child situation. The reason there often is at least a semblance of logic to immorality is that most immorality can be related to natural, normal desires. But there is nothing natural or normal about homosexuality or lesbianism. And there especially is nothing natural or normal about two people of the same gender having children - it simply is not possible. Therefore, when two people of the same gender pretend to the parents of a child, it is obvious there is at lease one additional person of the opposite gender involved even though that third person is not acknowledged.

The destruction of the traditional family is one of the most serious institutionalized sin as regards its destructive effects on society and the damnation of individuals. Does anyone think a child who has two mommies but no daddy is going to learn the Lord’s Prayer - the Our Father? Does anyone think a child who has two daddies but no mommie is going to go to confession and receive holy communion? Or vice versa? No, of course not.

Those who think two people of the same gender can be good parents are as stupid as those who believe people can be moral or will be moral or will live up to at least the lowest moral standards, without morality; without morality being taught in thought and by Text Box: example.

Throughout history the acceptance of abortion has been the herald of a society entering its demise. Just remember the Jews offering their newly born and aborted children to Baal - to the Devil - in the Old Testament. Historically, the acceptance by a society of homosexual and lesbian activity and “marriages” has been the herald of a society in disintegration. Again, just remember the Jews and their cities of homosexuals in the Old Testament, even after entering the Promised Land and especially after King David.

We are sufficiently enlightened to recognize Saint John as being the herald of Christ. Are we sufficiently enlightened to recognize the demise of our society, and of virtually all of the souls therein, if God’s instructions, law, and the Natural Law continue to be ignored?

Were one to ignore that portion of the Natural Law - which, incidentally, God established - which is the foundation of gravity and its working, one would eventually be injured or killed. To the extent an individual or a society ignores God’s law and the Natural Law regarding procreation and family, that is the extent to which such individual or society is injured, or destroyed.

Before the Light of the World was born in Bethlehem, the world lay in darkness. The Light can never be extinguished, but individuals and even entire societies can chose to proceed in darkness.
