- Barber: Gay Marriage “Devalues” The Institution of Marriage – “Exactly. If gays are allowed to get married, who knows how many straight people are going to get duped into getting gay-married because it will be impossible to tell the two apart.”

1. Legal tender issued by the government is not counterfeit money. Therefore, by his analogy, legal same-sex marriages are not “counterfeit,” and do not devalue marriage. That idiot doesn’t even realize that he is arguing for the legalization of same-sex marriage!
2. What exactly was this “bath situation”? Is the problem that the parent bathing the child was of the same sex as the child? If so, should it be illegal for mothers to bathe their daughters because that is “sexual abuse” (and don’t even think about the same-sex showers at high schools everywhere)?
1. The problem is that he conflates a religious ceremony with a civil one. So, yes, whatever the government recognizes as legal marriage is, in fact, legal marriage. But if it’s not a religious marriage (by his religion), he think it’s not a marriage.
But, then, folks like him have never quite gotten the whole “separation of church and state” thing.
2. A better analogy would be that a mother should not be allowed to bathe a son, or fathers a daughter.
But that stems from the whole idea that homosexuals are distinguished only by their obsessive lust for same-sex sexual encounters … as opposed to heterosexuals, who are only interested in chaste, monogamous, moral emotional engagements with those they are attracted to.
1. Ah. Of course. I need help to think like these people. Thanks.
2. Have any of the anti-gay crowd ever opined that same-sex showers might turn students into homosexuals? I haven’t ever heard this argument, but it certainly seems like something they would come up with (i.e., crazy).
