These bills must be defeated for three reasons.
They are fiscally irresponsible. They open up a new class of entitlements on a social security and welfare system that is already broken.
They are socially and spiritually irresponsible. These bills provide government incentive to live together as though married, without the commitments of marriage. They are also contrary to the spiritual and moral teaching of the Bible and the historic mores of American culture.
They are a “gateway” or incremental step toward gay marriage. Mr. Murray, Mr. Moeller and others have repeatedly told the press and the public that the prize is ultimately marriage for gays.
