Same sex marriage ban overturned

Top world news: Sichuan earthquake, Myanmar cyclones.
Top American news: politics, and gay marriage.
See here.

Homosexuality is an abomination(!) cried conservatives. We have such moral decline!
Freedom! Equality! cried proponents of it. Just why you think is an abomination? What is your moral based on?

The conversavtives' answer, of course, is the BIBLE!

Then some will attack the Bible, referring to kids getting KILLED in the Bible ridiculing Elijah being bald. (2 Kings 2:23-24), (and I dare say some conservatives don't even know this Bible story.) They also can point out the verses of people get stoned to death, and get killed if you work on the Sabbath day,
the horrors of the 10 disasters on Egypt, and all that. These people dismissed the Bible altogether.

Some conservatives are then speechless.

Strictly base everything in the Bible will make you identify yourself as God-chosen people and you will kill everyone in your path to the promised land as you repeatedly read the conquests of Moses and Joshua and the battles of the Judges, and Israel/Judah against their neighbor enemies. Throughout western history people use holy war as a tactic. Not in the east though: the Taoists and Buddists get along just fine in China. I don't know of a single religion war in Chinese history.

Unfortunately people historically don't practice the "love thy neighbor" verse much, and prefer conquest each other instead.

What am I going to say is this, you don't even need the Bible to realize same-sex marriage is not right: it cannot be extended to everyone. Humanity will wipe out in 100 years if everyone has same-sex marriage. After all, where do YOU come from? Exactly one man and one woman (your parents).

Any biology person can tell me if homosexuality is practiced in other animals? If not, I dare say it is abnormal behavior.

None of my business you say? The family is a well accepted basic foundation of human relationships. Shaking it is shaking entire humanity.
If you legalize same sex marriage: where do you draw the line?
How about uncle-neice? two-brothers? brother-sister? multiple-husbands, multiple-wives? Shaking the foundation of humanity is no less impact than a tremendous earthquake.

At this point, rescuing people in need is much more priority than politics and other issues.
