Pope Calls Gay Marriage Part of 'Ideology of Evil'

When I started writing this Blog, I supported gay marriage. But in the course of writing, I have changed my mind. If I as a Christian support gay marriage, then I am lending aid to sinners to continue commiting sin. I cannot say that it's their choice and I'll get out of their way any more than I can do so for those who practice beastiality. Some find the comparison between beastiality and homosexuality incomprehensible, let me explain it to you. If the union between you and your sexual partner cannot be fruitful, then you are disobeying God's first directive to his newly created children "Go forth and be fruitful." Now some of you think you have a gotcha. Some men and women aren't capable of having babies. This is true, but in general the union between a man and a woman can produce children...can the same be said of two men? Two women? A woman and a wombat? I think not.

It says in Genesis that woman was created as a helper for man, but I think it's deeper than that. Women are the opposite of men. Women are designed to fullfill a mans needs that cannot be fullfilled by a another man, just as a man is designed to fulfill a womans needs that cannot be fullfilled by a another woman. Not just sexual, but also emotional and material needs are met in this partnership. For instance: A woman may pick the couch to buy, but it will be the man who puts it where she wants it placed. Even in the gay male community, women play an important role. It's the fact that even gay men cannot be without women. And even man-hating women cannot be without men. So they create a symbiotic relationship to fullfill each others needs (not entirely unlike the relationship of fungus and algae in lichens.)
