BBC speak - Devout Catholics, equality and dialogue

Good old BBC which can be relied upon to promote any and every liberal insanity has a wonderful piece that is almost beyond satire promoting unnatural marriage.

Follows the usual template, relatively presentable people whine that they are oppressed or hard done by because they cannot "marry" their "partner". They are second class citizens they claim.

Of course being the BBC they find a "devout Catholic", about to be civil unionized gay couple to have their say
"The word 'marriage' is important to me because it would help in fighting for equality.

"I would like to start talking in the same language as heterosexual couples. It will help dialogue."

He believes the Catholic view of marriage - defined as a union between man and woman - is misleading as that has not always been the case.

However, he says the components of traditional marriage - love, family and raising children - are "exactly the reasons why I would like to get married".

"I do want to raise children, to profess my love and be supported by the community."
He wants to raise children - huh? Are his children going to be delivered to him by the stork?

Those of us who are family oriented and who want to raise children, as I and my co-bloggers here have done, find an opposite sex partner who is of a like mind, marry them, and set about procreating and raising the resulting children. And we invest the better part of our adult lives as well as most of our income in doing this.

It's not particularly glamorous, its hard work at times and you don't get invited to the cool parties all that often. And whatever your "sexual identity" might be, presumably in the jargon of these times "straight", "cis-man" or cis-woman" it is really quite unimportant in the scheme of things.

This gay marriage thing is the last gasp of a failing civilization - the man who says he wants "the components of traditional marriage - love, family and raising children" with his same sex partner is expecting somebody else to provide the children for him to raise! Demonstrating both self absorbtion and self entitlement.
