The Irony of Gay Marriage

Gay marriage is the newest touchstone issue in society. An increasing number of heterosexuals are in favor of it and, barring a major revival, will undoubtedly continue to grow (I recently saw a sruvey that showed 98% of homosexuals in favor; are 2% of homosexuals really against having the right to marry? Weird).

At the same time that homosexuals are demanding the right to marry, heterosecual couples are increasingly living together without being maried. In 2007, the Census Bureau reported that 6.4 million couples were lving together without being maried. This represented 10 of all opposite sex couples.

If these trends continue, then in a generation or two the only people getting married will be Christians and gays. Very ironic.
