This is an interesting contrast to when homosexual marriage was imposed on France. Massive street protests  broke out with many Catholics going to prison. I wonder where are all those chest thumping American “Christians” are now?

Laura writes:

The French intuitively understand this issue in ways Americans — and apparently the Irish — do not. They (the French) typically frame the debate in terms of the effect on children. You can bang your head against a wall trying to make Americans grasp that. They just don’t. They see it entirely in terms of the personal happiness of adults.

Even many French who call themselves homosexuals are vocally opposed to sodomite “marriage.” They say it would be terrible for children.

Small wonder. The very people celebrating this great “victory for equality” have, as a consequence of this campaign, created the proverbial “chilling effect on freedom of speech” that we so often find them lamenting in other instances.

This has been perhaps the most depressing week I’ve lived through in the political life of the American nation. Beginning with Charleston and immediately followed by the top-down “Stalinist-style cultural cleansing” (Todd Starnes) of all things Southern, to the hideous Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare and finally, on Friday, its culminating validation of something that can never be anything but an oxymoron, there can be no denying what has happened. A Facebook Friend who is a strong religious conservative wrote something that I first read last night, but woke up haunted by this morning:

“Something died today. In mourning.”

I suppose it is to be expected when God and procreation are divorced from the marital embrace.

I was in a discussion with young lady who asked, why shouldn’t homosexuals be married when people are divorcing left and right and sexually promiscuous before marriage? Indeed, why not.

I blame the leaders within the Catholic Church and their failure to do their jobs.

You nailed it there, Melanie. There’s where the real blame lies… and it will last until God gives us a true Pope and restores the Faith.
