Q & A

  • What is the main argument presented in the script against same-sex 'marriage'?

  • How does the script suggest that same-sex unions violate natural law?

    -The script suggests that same-sex unions violate natural law by circumventing the primary purpose of marriage, which it states is procreation. It argues that every child should be raised by their natural father and mother, implying that same-sex couples cannot provide this.

  • What is the script's stance on the comparison between same-sex 'marriage' and racial equality?

    -The script strongly opposes the comparison, stating that sexual behavior and race are completely different things. It argues that marriage is about the natural pairing of a man and a woman, which is not affected by racial differences.

  • How does the script use the story of Adam and Eve to support its argument?

    -The script uses the biblical story of Adam and Eve to illustrate the traditional view of marriage as being between a man and a woman, suggesting that if God had intended for same-sex 'marriage', He would have created Adam and Steve or two females.

  • What is the script's view on the impact of legalizing same-sex 'marriage' on society?

    -The script believes that legalizing same-sex 'marriage' would obscure basic moral values, devalue natural marriage, weaken public morality, and force individuals to betray their conscience and Christian morality.

    -The script uses the analogy of an apple to illustrate that despite any internal issues, an apple remains an apple, whereas an orange can never become an apple. Similarly, it argues that same-sex unions can never be equivalent to traditional marriages.

  • What is the script's final call to action for its viewers?

    -The script encourages viewers to defend traditional marriage as established by God, to stand on the 'right side of history,' and to oppose same-sex 'marriage' to protect Christian civilization and moral values.

🚫 Sterility of Homosexual Unions and the Impact on Society

This paragraph delves into the argument that homosexual unions are inherently sterile and cannot naturally produce children, unlike heterosexual marriages. It refutes the idea that couples who cannot conceive should not marry, by stating that the potential for procreation is intrinsic to the concept of marriage. The speaker uses an analogy comparing an apple to an orange to illustrate that same-sex unions can never be equivalent to heterosexual ones. The paragraph further discusses the societal implications of legalizing same-sex marriage, suggesting it would compel individuals to betray their conscience and natural order. It also touches on the persecution faced by businesses refusing service to same-sex weddings and the broader societal acceptance of behaviors that the speaker deems unnatural. The script concludes with a religious perspective, referencing the Book of Genesis and the divine establishment of marriage, and ends with a call to stand on the 'right side of history' by defending traditional marriage.

Mindmap

Keywords

💡Liberal Professor

A 'liberal professor' in the context of this video refers to an educator with progressive or left-leaning political views, who may be perceived as imposing these views on students, particularly in discussions around same-sex marriage. The script suggests that such professors could create a challenging environment for students with opposing views.

💡Same-Sex Marriage

The term 'same-sex marriage' is central to the video's theme, referring to the union of two individuals of the same gender. The video argues against its validity, using religious and natural law perspectives to assert that marriage should be exclusively between a man and a woman.

💡Political Correctness

'Political correctness' in this script is portrayed negatively, suggesting an enforced adherence to certain progressive ideologies in a classroom setting. The video implies that this can stifle open debate and the expression of traditional or conservative viewpoints.

💡Natural Law

Natural law, as mentioned in the script, is a philosophical concept that refers to a system of moral principles that are inherent in human nature and can be understood universally through human reason. The video uses this concept to argue against same-sex marriage, stating that it violates the natural order and purpose of marriage for procreation.

💡Procreation

Procreation is the process of producing offspring, and in the video, it is presented as a fundamental purpose of marriage. The argument is made that same-sex couples cannot naturally procreate, thus their unions should not be considered marriages.

💡Biological Mother and Father

The script emphasizes the importance of having both a 'biological mother and father' for a child's development, suggesting that same-sex couples cannot provide this. It argues that children in same-sex households are missing out on essential role models.

💡Homosexual Agenda

'Homosexual agenda' is used in the video to describe the perceived promotion and normalization of homosexuality and same-sex relationships by activists and organizations. The video's stance is against this agenda, aiming to defend what it sees as traditional family values.

💡Civil Rights

The term 'civil rights' is discussed in the context of comparing the struggle for same-sex marriage recognition to historical fights for racial equality. The video refutes this comparison, arguing that sexual behavior is not equivalent to racial identity and should not be treated as a civil rights issue.

💡Sterility

In the script, 'sterility' is used to describe the inherent inability of same-sex couples to naturally conceive children. This is used as a point to argue against the recognition of same-sex marriages, suggesting that they cannot fulfill the 'natural' purpose of marriage.

💡Traditional Marriage

'Traditional marriage' is contrasted with 'same-sex marriage' in the video, with the former being upheld as the only legitimate form of marriage. The script suggests that traditional marriage, defined as a union between a man and a woman, is essential for societal and moral order.

💡Christian Civilization

The script refers to 'Christian civilization' as a treasure that needs to be protected, implying a cultural and moral framework rooted in Christian values. The video's arguments against same-sex marriage are presented as a defense of these values.

Is your liberal professor giving you problems because you oppose same-sex "marriage?"

play00:05

If so, you need some quick rebuttals that show how same-sex "marriage" doesn't work.

Keep watching because we're going to help you Fight Back!

play00:16

"You will write, 100 times, on the blackboard"

play00:19

'I will be politically correct in class.'

play00:21

"We don't say 'traditional marriage' in this class- that is bigoted!"

play00:25

"The Bible is not history! Ha, ha ha!"

play00:28

"The work of Darwin is irrefutable!"

play00:30

"A fetus is just a clump of cells!"

play00:33

We are all equal: plants, animals, people!

play00:38

All right, that's it! Enough is enough!

play00:43

("Fight Back" theme song)

play01:04

Before jumping into the topic,

play01:06

I want to say that we have no intention to defame or disparage anyone.

play01:10

by intellectually opposing individuals or organizations that promote the homosexual agenda,

play01:16

our only goal is to defend the sacred institution of marriage and the family,

play01:21

and protect the treasures of Christian civilization.

play01:24

You and I have every right to defend the truth in charity.

play01:29

Okay, let's go to our first reason.

play01:32

#1. It's not marriage

play01:34

Calling something marriage does not make it marriage.

play01:37

Marriage has always been the covenant between a man and a woman.

play01:40

That's how children come into the world. That's how families are formed.

play01:45

"A man and a woman has nothing to do with it"

play01:49

"Shame on your definition of marriage!"

play01:51

Same-sex unions are not marriages,

play01:53

because they deny the self evident distinction between male and female,

play01:58

between mother and father.

play02:00

It's very simple: two entirely different things cannot be called the same thing.

play02:06

#2. It violates natural law

play02:09

Marriage is not just any relationship between two people.

play02:12

It's deeply rooted in human nature itself,

play02:15

which is governed by natural law.

play02:17

Now, natural law’s most basic precept is this: “Do what's good, and avoid what's evil."

play02:23

By reason we know what is morally good or bad.

play02:26

Thus, we understand the purpose of our actions.

play02:29

In marriage, the procreative act of husband and wife has a primary purpose: procreation.

play02:34

To intentionally circumvent that purpose violates natural law

play02:39

and the objective norm of morality.

play02:41

Every child should be raised by his natural father and mother.

play02:45

this rule is confirmed by the obvious difficulties faced by orphan children.

play02:49

A child who lives in a same-sex union environment

play02:51

is never going to have his biological mother or father.

play02:55

He will always be missing a mother or father role model.

play02:58

Through this, we can see that the homosexual movement

play03:00

downgrades and discards motherhood and fatherhood

play03:02

as something necessary for a child, even when children themselves

play03:06

naturally crave for a mother or father.

play03:09

And there are single parents, like my mom, all across the country

play03:12

who do a heroic job raising terrific kids,

play03:15

but I still wish I had a dad who was

play03:18

not only around but involved.

play03:21

In the name of the "family"

play03:22

same-sex "marriage" serves to validate

play03:25

the homosexual lifestyle in all of its bisexual and transgender variants.

play03:30

You see, civil laws are structuring principles that guide society.

play03:36

Laws shape the life of society, and as such

play03:39

can mold the perception right and wrong.

play03:41

That's why I oppose the legal recognition of homosexual "marriage:"

play03:46

because it obscures basic moral values, devalues natural marriage

play03:50

and weakens public morality.

play03:52

A moral wrong can never be a civil right.

play03:56

Homosexual activists say that same-sex “marriage”

play03:59

is a civil right, just like the struggle for racial equality in the 60's.

play04:05

This is not true!

play04:07

Sexual behavior and race are two completely different things!

play04:10

A man and a woman who want to get married can be:

play04:13

black or white, rich or poor, short or tall.

play04:17

None of those differences are obstacles to true marriage

play04:19

because nature is still respected.

play04:22

Same-sex unions, on the other hand, oppose nature.

play04:25

"It's about Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve."

play04:28

If God wanted it to be that way,

play04:29

he would've made Adam and Steve, or two females. He didn't, people!

play04:33

He made man and took the ribs and made woman!

play04:37

Not the other way around. People, come on! It's simple! It's simple!

play04:40

AND YOU 'RE CONFUSING THE KIDS!"

play04:42

Two individuals of the same sex can never be married because its biologically impossible.

play04:47

No matter how hard a man tries, he can never be a mother.

play04:51

One cannot compare genetic racial traits

play04:54

to non-genetic behavior.

play04:58

Homosexual Unions are 100% Sterile

play05:02

A man and a woman who get married are naturally able to have children and form a family.

play05:06

But homosexual unions, on the other hand, are 100% sterile.

play05:11

The sexual acts of two men or two women will never produce a child!

play05:16

If two men want to have a child, they have to use artificial means and employ surrogates.

play05:21

There always has to be a woman involved!

play05:23

Their unions cannot form families.

play05:26

Someone could object and say, "Well, you're saying that couples who can't have children shouldn't get married?"

play05:32

The answer to the objection is this: procreation is connected to the

play05:35

to the essence marriage and family.

play05:38

While man and a woman may accidentally not be able to conceive a child

play05:42

their union is still in accordance with nature.

play05:46

In contrast, homosexual unions are sterile and not natural.

play05:50

Alan Keyes gives the great analogy of an apple.

play05:54

If the apple has a warm inside of it or is rotten- it's still an apple.

play05:58

Whereas, an orange will never be an apple

play06:01

no matter what you do to it.

play06:04

It's the same thing with homosexual unions- they will never beget families.

play06:08

It defeats the state's purpose of benefiting marriage.

play06:11

One of the reasons why the state gives benefits to true marriage is this:

play06:14

by nature and by design, marriage provides children

play06:18

with the normal conditions for a stable, beneficial, affectionate and moral atmosphere.

play06:23

This helps perpetuate the nation and strengthen society.

play06:27

Homosexual unions don't provide that!

play06:29

Their primary purpose, objectively speaking, is the personal gratification of two individuals.

play06:34

That's why homosexual unions are not entitled to the same protection that the state gives to natural marriage.

play06:42

By legalizing same-sex "marriage," the state becomes its official promoter.

play06:46

In every situation where marriage affects society,

play06:48

the state will expect good people, like you, to betray your conscience,

play06:53

to betray the natural order and to betray Christian morality.

play06:59

This new type of persecution is already hitting bakers, photographers, and flower shops

play07:04

that choose not to serve same-sex "weddings."

play07:08

For example, in Massachusetts, the father of a 6-year-old boy

play07:12

was arrested and put in jail. Why?

play07:15

Because he objected to the pro-homosexual curriculum being taught in his son's school.

play07:21

Unfortunately, more and more children are being exposed to the homosexual lifestyle in school,

play07:25

even though parents don't want it.

play07:29

Today, the sexual revolution is telling society to accept unnatural vice.

play07:33

This explains why homosexual activist Paul Varnell wrote:

play07:46

If homosexual "marriage" is accepted,

play07:48

what logical arguments can be used to oppose, let's say,

play07:52

two men and three women from getting married?

play07:56

It's shocking but elements of certain subcultures are already advocating

play08:00

incest, pedophilia, bestiality, and other forms of unnatural behavior.

play08:07

In the Book of Genesis, we read:

play08:21

Marriage is not the creature of any State.

play08:24

It was established by God in Paradise for our first parents, Adam and Eve.

play08:29

Whenever we violate the natural moral order established by God, we sin.

play08:33

That's why same-sex “marriage” is wrong. And that's why it must be opposed.

play08:37

Natural marriage is on the right side of history! Stand on the right side of history!

play08:42

Defend God's marriage and be on the right side of history!
