There's so much to say, I don't know where to start. Perhaps with a small background discussion. I mentioned that there has been a war against marriage and families being waged for years. But, who is waging this war and why? Let me just answer that by saying evil is waging this war. Many would try to deny that there is evil in the world. Their moral relativism has allowed them to reason away good and evil. But, deny as they may, there is evil in the world, and that evil wants you, me and everyone to be miserable just like itself. It's war is actually on happiness. It will do anything it can to destroy happiness so we will all be miserable. Destroying the family is just one way to accomplish its design; a big one, though, because some much misery come along with the destruction of the family. Just witness our current circumstances.
This evil would like us to believe it's not there. If we don't recognize it, then we can't fight against it. Just like a frog in a pot of water does not notice the temperature rising, society has been oblivious to this evil for a long time.Well, the water is getting really hot and I'm telling you it's time to get out. I'm confident that many are aware of this. Some have tried to speak out. But evil has so much control right now, that anyone who tries to raise a voice of warning or go against the popular tide, is quickly demonized by a very vocal crowd who, ironically, by their non-tolerance of opposing view points completely contradict their own claims to moral superiority, open-mindedness and desires for "fairness". It seems that for them freedom of speech only applies if what you say and belief is in line with their views and beliefs. This intolerance has recently peaked with the farced resignation of the CEO of Mozilla and the attempt to force Condoleezza Rice from the board of Dropbox.
Despite this grip that evil has on our society, truth does not change and if we want to improve our circumstances, we must stand against this tide and stick to what we know is best for society.
One more word of warning before I continue. I will be very direct and not pull any punches in this blog. I will not sugar coat things, nor be careful to not offend anyone. In fact, I plan on using my freedom of speech and rights to offend, because the truth is hard for some to take, but it is still truth.
Well, that was quite a rant, and I still have not gotten to anything of substance. So, let me get to the next topic: children. One thing our society does seem to rally behind is helping children, so, perhaps this appeal will reach some. Every child deserves a good home to be raised in. The best environment in which to raise a child is in a family with a loving father and mother. This is not always possible, but is the best situation. So, what is one of the easiest ways evil can prevent a child from being raised in such a family? Convince society that the sacred act that results in the creation of a child is just a means for pleasure. Demean it. Make it dirty. Turn it into just something to use for fun with whom ever and whenever we please. Extra-marital sex has destroyed more families, prevented more stable homes, and lead to more hours of counseling that anything else in this world.
Now, I know this is not going to be popular since our society has decided that there is nothing wrong with sex outside of marriage. No, not just that, but that it is to be celebrated and embraced. But, this is one of evils greatest tools in its war on the family and marriage. Look, this is actually very simple. Sex leads to pregnancy. That's it's purpose. You may think, but I use birth control. Guess what; no birth control is 100% effective. The only way to not get pregnant is to not have sex. So, if you are not ready to support and raise a child, don't have sex. It's not that complicated. Remember, we are doing this for the children. Every child deserves to be raised in a stable home. If you cannot provide that, don't have sex.
Society tells us that we can't control it. This is a lie. Society tells us that you have to have sex to show your love for someone. That is a lie. Society tells us that everyone is doing it. What are we, a bunch of lemmings following each other off a cliff? No, we are much better than that. We can exercise self control. It is possible to wait until marriage, and in fact, this shows much more love for someone when you are willing to wait.
Again, I could go on and on, but I think this is enough for now. The main point is that sex outside of marriage is a very powerful weapon used against marriage and the family. If we truly want to reverse the downward trends of our society, this is one of those root causes we must fix. Let's do it "for the children."
There is another topic very closely related that I purposely held off on in this entry, abortion. Maybe next time.
