Equality and Pairage

What is hoped to be accomplished when two people of the same gender unite their lives in "pairage?" I don't see how you can call it marriage because that, according to the good book called the Bible, happens between two people who can procreate as in man and wife. You can't change anatomy and biology. Mother Nature decreed it. It reminds one of laws put into effect when a great majority of the public disagree. The public (by and large) will by and large obey the law of the land but will not accept the law. So...simply passing a law and allowing pairage changes nothing in the minds of people who believe differently. If what is expected is the acceptance by all.... that can quickly be dismissed. Don't be blinded with the emotion involved. It only clouds the issue; there is no clarity. Probably most hurtful to those participating in pairage is that those they would like to most accept their union will not; thus that desire goes unfulfilled. Some will even feel hatred. THat part is sad for all involved.

I understand that which is desired by those thus afflicted. But no person on this earth can change the laws of God. The law is bound by creation -- none of us have or control that power. At the same time not many people would want to deny anyone of happiness in this earthly sojourn. It is difficult at best.

On the other hand some of these people involved in pairages have either had children by obtaining children (or a child) through adoption or artificial insemination of some sort. Others may have been previously married and have children they bring into a pairage with them. None of us would deny that these children are loved. But they are, in many cases, denied the opportunity to be parented by a parent of each sex. While one can say this happens all of the time in our society one can agree that it does although that is not always the most desirable type of parenting, assuming abuse of no type be involved in the parenting.

I know that the decisions being made by the court have been long awaited by many pairs. However, I am not certain that it will ever accomplish what seems to be most desired.....unless what is desired is joint benefits as in $$$$.

I don't expect anyone the agree with me. I don't apologize for what I believe and see as the big picture. I do not think I have stated anything in this blog that is not true. Do you have an opinion??
