A new website dubbed Marriage for a Reason was launched Monday by the Catholic church, premiering first at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ (USCCB) fall symposium.

The site is aimed to educate Catholics and non-Catholics about the “essentials” of marriage. The frequently asked question, “Why can’t marriage be “redefined” to include two men or two women?” is explained:

The word “marriage” isn’t simply a label that can be attached to different types of relationships. Instead, “marriage” reflects a deep reality – the reality of the unique, fruitful, lifelong union that is only possible between a man and a woman. Just as oxygen and hydrogen are essential to water, sexual difference is essential to marriage. The attempt to “redefine” marriage to include two persons of the same sex denies the reality of what marriage is. It is as impossible as trying to “redefine” water to include oxygen and nitrogen.

The site also features videos which promote heterosexual couples highlighting the importance of “sexual difference.” As Marriage for a Reason describes, “Sexual difference is an irreducible difference. It is unlike any other difference we experience, because it – and only it – allows for the total personal union between husband and wife that is at the heart of marriage.”

1. You know what?

I wouldn't take an etiquette class from Charles Manson, and I wouldn't look to
a nest of pedophiles wearing white collars--for advice on marriage, family and love
either.

Seriously.

It's maddening that this very evil institution dares to suggest anything to anybody.

3. I keep telling them to go phuck themselves...

and they probably are, but they still come out with this sh*t.

4. Sexual difference?

Isn't that why G'd made tops and bottoms?

6. Jesus loves the little children...

7. One would think that the catholic church would spend time fighting divorce.

After all, isn't divorce what's destroying hetero marriage?

:shrug:

8. Why is a group of pedophiles and enablers preaching about the sanctity of marriage?

Maybe they should be taking care of the moat in their own eye before worrying about the alleged speck in other peoples'. Just saying...

9. If "sexual difference"

is so blessed and so important, how come women aren't allowed to be priests?

And if sex is such an "essential" how come priests have to pretend to be celebate?

When it comes to all things gender or sexual, these people are clueless.

And I don't like the way they treat kids either.

10. Sexual difference is important

That's why people are treated so differently according to what they have between their legs. So sayeth The Lord.

11. Great comeback!

12. How can anyone in good conscience belong to the Catholic Church?

How disgusting do they have to be before people quit en masse?

13. Seems logical to me

I mean, if a gay couple get married, which one of them is in charge? Everyone knows the woman has to obey the man, just as the man has to obey the priests and his social betters.

If you allow gay marriage now, next thing you know, the whole hierarchy will collapse, and what will we have then?

14. God I wish they had some idea of how meaningless their efforts were in the scheme of things....

Love will win
