"Society grants benefits and legal preference to traditional marriage, because traditional marriage b..." — Mike Johnson

Homosexual relationships are inherently unnatural and, the studies clearly show, are ultimately harmful and costly for everyone. Society cannot give its stamp of approval to such a dangerous lifestyle.

Homosexuals have the right to live however they choose but they cannot redefine marriage for our entire society. The stakes are very high in this battle, and it is not 'intolerance' for us to desire a healthy and prosperous community.

No successful civilization prior to the 21st century has ever provided legal preferences for same-sex relationships.

All of us should acknowledge the real emotion and strife of the homosexual lifestyle, and should certainly treat all people with dignity, love and respect But our government can never provide its stamp of approval or special legal sanction for behavior patterns that are proven to be destructive to individuals, to families and to society at large.
