Dear Homosexual Friend

Dear Homosexual Friend: It’s futile.

Why marriage re-definition won’t work.…


Nobody likes to be rejected, bullied or excluded. We all want be loved, accepted and included. It’s part of being human - we desire these things and feel good when they happen.

Growing up we should learn it in our family and we experience the effects (good and bad) in groups in kindy, the playground and school. We are normally told it is the right thing to do: include people in games and activities, share with people - accept and love them.

Homosexual Faith in Marriage

Homosexual Faith in Marriage

The real reason homosexuals want marriage re-defined…and how we can relate.



The current debate has settled down to the ‘re-definition of marriage’, a definition that includes any two men and two women. If you talk to people who want this change they will be very careful to try to point out that ‘love is love’, ‘it doesn’t affect anyone’ and ‘it is about equal rights’.

But this doesn’t make sense - a huge number of people
will be affected (even if you ignore the links to sex education, transgenderism, freedom of speech and religious rights), what is labelled love isn’t always love and homosexual rights have been instituted for years. Homosexuals have all the rights of a married couple in Australia.

The only thing missing is a piece of paper that says ‘Certificate of Marriage’.


A question comes to mind - what good is this piece of paper to them? Marriage is an institution that has always been opposed to homosexual inclusivity - so why would they want to be part of it?

Do they believe deeply in marriage and hold it as sacred?


I recall an article doing the rounds a while ago where a lesbian woman had married a homosexual man to try to bring light to the ‘inequality of marriage’. But to me this stunt simply shows the disdain they have for this institution. They had no ‘love’ for each other, no commitment for life to the other, and had no plans to ‘exclude all others’ from their relationship or beds.

Is it a sign of a triumph? This could be true for a number of people in this camp, but I think it goes far deeper. As a small skirmish as part of a larger war, this battle is only of contextual importance - in a few years this will just be a small stepping stone to the complete desecration of the public notion of marriage.

But personally for the individual - the homosexual barracking for this change - what does it mean to them? Not all of them are the militant, arrogant, violent people we see swearing, spitting and threatening. But they are people deeply wounded and hurting - struggling through a painful life and at times seen as the enemy when all they want or need is a friend or unconditional love.

Look the other way

Look the Other Way

I saw today a post where someone had put the words:

“as a Christian I would never enforce my view on anyone”


I could hardly believe my eyes - is
this why so many professing Christians are unwilling to stand up and say no to abortion or the re-definition of marriage?

If I were walking down the park and saw a group of boys throwing stones at a Magpie, using a stick to stab a cute kitten, throwing acid at a dog or using a crossbow to shoot a Kangaroo - should I walk or look away?

What if a group of men come to try to rape my wife - should I not enforce my will, my opinion, my
belief that ‘rape is wrong’, that ‘my wife should be defended’? Should I sit back passively and model a more loving, nicer way to live - a more tolerant ‘religion’ and share my love with these men when they are finished?

How absurd! Unfortunately, many liberal churches and christians are falling into this culture trap - and many have already a suffered because of the consequences. We have videos, games and media that display what was (and should be) classed as pornographic and unthinkable, but now normal on bus stops, in games and on prime time TV. Computer games where theft and killing are the main aim and constant programs that mock Christians / Christian values, but play political correctness to all others....
