As we noted a few weeks ago, the Right did not react well to the California Supreme Court’s ruling in favor of equal marriage rights for gays and lesbians, with people like Janet Folger going so far as to proclaim it signals the end of the world.
In the days since the ruling was handed down, the Right doesn’t appear to have mellowed … if anything, some of them seem to be getting more and more riled up by the day. Take, for instance, this recent rant by Concerned Women for America’s Matt Barber:
So-called "same-sex marriage" is a counterfeit. It's a fraud and not even a good one at that. If marriage is a Rembrandt, then the ridiculous and oxymoronic notion of "gay marriage" is a Rembrandt knock-off from the pages of Mad Magazine. It's a silly novelty.
I know. I'm "mean-spirited." But in light of the California Supreme Court's recent opinion - which enigmatically manufactured a "constitutional right" to "same-sex marriage" out of thin air - I think we need to come back to earth for a moment. Mind you, re-entry into reality's atmosphere will inevitably burn some folks.
When same-sex friendships (or more often, seconds-old acquaintances) are twisted and sexualized, practitioners of "the sin that dare not speak its name" are forced, at every level, to merely mimic the genuine article. They jump through a series of inelegant hoops to create a fantasy world wherein two people of the same gender clumsily imitate natural heterosexual pairings properly designed for procreation and the healthy rearing of children.
Even "gay sex" (male-male anal sodomy) is a crude, man-made imitation of the natural heterosexual reproductive process (only the fallen mind of man could concoct such depraved and foul behavior). Sadly, as millions of homosexuals have had to learn the hard way, this disordered, makeshift simulation of a natural biological process is coldly rejected by the very human biology it mocks.
…
Ellen [DeGeneres] compounds the sin of homosexuality by using the platform she's been given to lead others astray. She guides her many adoring housewife fans into rebellion against God's divine and explicit natural order by suggesting they celebrate sin and entertain, along with her, the "gay marriage" delusion.
Still, God will not be mocked. It's the height of humanist hubris to believe that man (including judges) can radically redefine that which God has created. We can never sanctify that which natural law rejects and God expressly condemns. Especially when God Himself, out of sheer love for each of us, offers us so much more.
I'm sorry (well not really) for my lack of contrived "sensitivity," but Ellen, sweetie (to borrow from a presidential candidate), no amount of wishful thinking or going through the motions will make your illicit same-sex "relationship" with Ms. DeRossi a "marriage." You may get a piece of paper that says it is, but, in the eyes of God and most of the world, your counterfeit "marriage" will never be worth the paper it's written on.
Before he was hired by CWA, Barber worked for Allstate Insurance until he was fired for penning anti-gay columns for right-wing websites – go figure.
Speaking of right-wing groups going completely over the top, the Traditional Values Coalition weighs in on the equality legislation in Colorado that we wrote about a few days ago … or, as TVC calls it, “The She-Male Restroom Bill”:
“This obscene law will now put every man, woman and child at risk for shock and fear whenever they enter a restroom or locker room,” said TVC Executive Director Andrea Lafferty. “What kind of trauma will a little girl experience in a restroom when she’s confronted with some hairy-legged transvestite sitting in the stall next to her? Does her privacy mean nothing? Apparently it doesn’t to Gov. Ritter.
“One can only wonder if Gov. Ritter will be upset if his teenage daughter encounters a she-male in a school restroom in the next few months,” said Lafferty. “Will he be so concerned about protecting these bizarre individuals or will he worry about his daughter’s privacy?”
For good measure, TVC finally got around to sharing its views on the pregnancy of Thomas Beatie, which it did with its typical reserve and respectability:
Liberal and lazy journalists reporting the story about Beatie/Lagondino routinely refer to her as “he.” This is factually and scientifically incorrect. No one can “change” their sex. They can mutilate their bodies and take hormones to look like the opposite sex, but there is no way a person can be anything other than their birth sex. Femaleness and maleness are embedded in the DNA of each person.
If journalists were doing their job of reporting the facts, Lagondino would be described as a woman, a “she” or a she-male. To describe her as a man is inaccurate, unscientific and is evidence that journalists have caved in to the homosexual/transgender lobby.
Journalists who write about transgenderism should either report the facts honestly or openly admit that they’re in the tank for the homosexual/transgender agenda.
…
Journalists who have caved in to the homosexual/transgender agenda are helping perpetuate mental illnesses, the destruction of the family; and the mutilation of children who are being exploited by activist pediatricians for political gain!
