The "sexual revolution" of the 60s promoted three terrible ideas--each of which connects to the current push for same-sex marriage.
First, "free love" shattered the connection between sex and procreation, aided by the pill and legalized abortion. Second, the idea of "if it feels good, do it" suggested that any deep-seated urge deserved respect and fulfillment. Finally, feminist folly maintained that men and women were indistinguishable, with no significant differences.
Gay marriage recycles all these bad ideas: glorifying love that never leads to procreation, insisting that homosexual urges deserve as much respect as love between a man and a woman and, finally, insisting that men and women are interchangeable.
Each of these three notions damages society and the individuals who hold to them.
