Why is gay marriage bad
About six-in-ten Americans say legalization of same-sex marriage is good for society
With the Senate set to accept up a bill that would protect same-sex marriage at the federal level, a clear majority of Americans continue to state that the legalization of same-sex marriage is excellent for society.
About six-in-ten adults (61%) express a positive view of the impact of same-sex marriage existence legal, including 36% who say it is very good for society. Roughly four-in-ten have a negative view (37%), with 19% saying it is very bad.
The new survey – which was fielded in October, before the midterm elections – comes as some have questioned whether same-sex marriage will endure legal nationally following the Supreme Court’s June ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade, turning abortion laws back to the states.
How we did this
Pew Study Center asked this doubt to track public views about the legal status of same-sex marriage. For this analysis, we surveyed 5, adults from Oct. , Everyone who took part in this survey is a member of the Center’s American Trends Panel (ATP), an online surve
What Does the Bible Say About Homosexuality?
What Does The Bible Declare About Homosexuality?
Introduction
For the last two decades, Pew Research Center has reported that one of the most enduring ethical issues across Christian traditions is sexual diversity. For many Christians, one of the most frequently first-asked questions on this topic is, “What does the Bible say about attraction to someone of the similar sex?”
Although its unlikely that the biblical authors had any notion of sexual orientation (for example, the term homosexual wasn't even coined until the tardy 19th century) for many people of faith, the Bible is looked to for timeless guidance on what it means to honor God with our lives; and this most certainly includes our sexuality.
Before we can hop into how it is that Christians can maintain the authority of the Bible and also affirm sexual diversity, it might be helpful if we started with a short but clear overview of some of the assumptions informing many Christian approaches to understanding the Bible.

Bad Arguments Against Homosexual Marriage
Abstract
This article claims that three ordinary arguments against lgbtq+ marriage - the definitional, procreation, and slippery-slope arguments - are quite poor, the worst of the lot. The definitional argument asserts that marriage just is the union of one dude and one girl, and that the definition alone is a sufficient defense against claims for gay marriage. The procreation argument claims that marriage's main public purpose is to encourage procreation, and so the exclusion of lgbtq+ couples is justified. The slippery-slope argument claims that the acceptance of homosexual marriage logically entails the acceptance of other public policy changes - notably the acceptance of polygamy - that would themselves be bad, independent of whether gay marriage is bad. While each argument has some appeal, and each has adherents both inside and outside the legal academy, each is badly flawed as a matter of logic, experience, politics, or some combination of the three. The article suggests that in the interest of focusing on the most important concerns about
Why &#;Gay Marriage&#; Is Bad
Question:
Why is gay marriage or sexual relations bad?
Answer:
First, it’s important to notice that there can be no such thing as “marriage” between two members of the similar sex. This is because marriage by nature is a union that is ordered toward the procreation and education of offspring, which necessarily involves both male and female. So, to talk about “gay marriage” is an unintelligible phrase, akin to a “square circle.”
With regard to why sexual activity among members of the same sex is bad, we must look to the character of sex and what is good and bad given our nature as human beings.
What is good for us as human beings is determined by the ends of our inherent capacities. Just as it is fine for a pencil to record, and it is good for an oak tree to sink roots deep into the earth and take in nutrients and water for its growth, it is good for a human being to know truth and avoid error, to live in society, to propagate its have species, to take in nutrients for human growth, etc.
The nice in the sexual arena, therefore, will be the achieveme
