Interracial Marriage: Slippery Slope?
La Shawn ask some great questions on the future of marriage in a country that allows same sex “marriage” (sorry, I hate calling it that).
Forty years ago — a little over a month after I was born — the U.S. Supreme Court declared laws against interracial marriage unconstitutional. See Loving v. Virginia.
Extremists on one side say interracial marriage has opened the door to deviant unions. Extremists on the other side say that Loving v. Virginia and the civil rights movement of the 1960s bolster their arguments for homosexual “marriage.”
Is interracial marriage a slippery slope? (The question is rhetorical, of course.)
I believe that changing the definition of marriage to include the union of two men and two women opens the door to legalizing increasingly deviant unions.
Non-rhetorical question: If we extend marriage to same-sex couples, on what grounds can we deny the same to three people? Or 10? Or close relatives? Or adults and children?
