David Cameron and the Homosexual Agenda

Our Prime Minister, David Cameron, will be congratulated on the speech about marriage which he made at the Conservative Party Conference this week. He said that he believes a stronger society “starts with families.”  That is indeed an admirable and very true statement. There are few people who can rightfully ignore that the breakdown of society in this country has been largely orchestrated by those responsible for the breakdown of marriage and so talk of a return to 'family values' and the support of marriage will always be music to the ears of those of the electorate who are genuinely concerned about the state of the nation.


The breakdown of marriage has brought about a fractured society in which the values once held by the majority of people have been so marginalised by the liberal extremists in the main arena of the political circus that there is little or no respect for anything or anyone any more. Led by a liberal elite who have openly discarded the moral and ethical values of a balanced society, those who still dare to stand up for the values which used to be the bedrock of this nation are ridiculed and publicly pilloried for their beliefs. 


There was once a time when this nation laid claims to being a Christian society, although I have to admit that what that meant, by and large, was that in general terms society followed the precepts of the 10 Commandments, rather than genuinely being followers of Jesus Christ, which is what being a Christian actually means. No wonder then, that Christians are increasingly sidelined and ridiculed for their beliefs in the modern-day secular nation in which we live.


The 'bedrock' concept and practise of marriage has been eroded by the ready acceptance of the increase in the illegitimate birthrate and by the relentless pursuit of the abortionists and the homosexual lobby to create a society in which 'equality' means that whatever an individual thinks is okay and desirous for them as a lifestyle should be legislated in favour. However, it should be recognised that no matter how many times you might shout that a particular issue or practise is right, it does not make it so by the noise of the pro-lobby alone.


Much has been said about the idea of homosexual unions cemented by the Civil Partnership route resulting in those concerned as being described as having been married, the fact of the matter is that, no matter how much vociferous noise is created by those in favour of such a description, marriage can only be a matter between a man and a woman. In terms of equality, the basis for much of Cameron's argument, the Civil Partnership ceremony protects those who favour this life-style choice quite adequately.


Cameron said in his speech:

“But for me, leadership on families also means speaking out on marriage. Marriage is not just a piece of paper. It pulls couples together through the ebb and flow of life. It gives children stability. And it says powerful things about what we should value. So yes, we will recognise marriage in the tax system.

“But we’re also doing something else. I once stood before a Conservative conference and said it shouldn’t matter whether commitment was between a man and a woman, a woman and a woman, or a man and another man. You applauded me for that. Five years on, we’re consulting on legalising gay marriage.

“And to anyone who has reservations, I say: Yes, it’s about equality, but it’s also about something else: commitment. Conservatives believe in the ties that bind us; that society is stronger when we make vows to each other and support each other. So I don’t support gay marriage despite being a Conservative. I support gay marriage because I’m a Conservative.”

Naturally, as a committed Christian, I take the Christian viewpoint on marriage, a factor for which I make no apology because I believe that the Biblical definition of marriage is the only correct one, and no amount of posturing by those who wish to change the definition for political gain or any other reason, will bring about a change of mind.

There is much talk regarding the rights of people in our society. If such talk was matched by mention of the corresponding responsibilities then perhaps our society would not be so fractured. It is my belief that homosexuality is a lifestyle choice, although I accept that the influences absorbed during upbringing will often nurture a proclivity towards that choice. 

So, Mr Cameron, I say that you are wrong in your thinking when it comes to extending the legality of the term 'marriage' to same-sex couples, for they can never be married in the eyes of God, only in the eyes of man. Of course, all people have a right to live as they want to, providing that their choice is legal, and that right extends to all people. However, to attempt to redefine that which is laid down in Holy Writ puts you on a collision course with God Himself.
