Orson Scott Card, author of the popular sci-fi novel Ender’s Game, has joined the board of the National Organization for Marriage. You may have heard of NOM recently thanks to its misleading “Gathering Storm” TV ad campaign which attacked equal rights for gays and lesbians.

We think that Card, who turned into a reactionary crank somewhere along the way, will be a good fit for NOM. Both have ample experience with alternate realities, and that should prove useful in explaining why committed same-sex couples shouldn’t be allowed to marry.

Because when government is the enemy of marriage, then the people who are actually creating successful marriages have no choice but to change governments, by whatever means is made possible or necessary.

...

Why should married people feel the slightest loyalty to a government or society that are conspiring to encourage reproductive and/or marital dysfunction in their children? Why should married people tolerate the interference of such a government or society in their family life?

If America becomes a place where our children are taken from us by law and forced to attend schools where they are taught that cohabitation is as good as marriage, that motherhood doesn't require a husband or father, and that homosexuality is as valid a choice as heterosexuality for their future lives, then why in the world should married people continue to accept the authority of such a government?

What these dictator-judges do not seem to understand is that their authority extends only as far as people choose to obey them.

How long before married people answer the dictators thus: Regardless of law, marriage has only one definition, and any government that attempts to change it is my mortal enemy. I will act to destroy that government and bring it down, so it can be replaced with a government that will respect and support marriage, and help me raise my children in a society where they will expect to marry in their turn.

Biological imperatives trump laws. American government cannot fight against marriage and hope to endure. If the Constitution is defined in such a way as to destroy the privileged position of marriage, it is that insane Constitution, not marriage, that will die.

The National Organization for Marriage is fighting tooth and nail to slow down the inevitable, bipartisan shift toward marriage equality across the country. All other anti-gay groups in the U.S. have ceded the marriage issue to NOM, which runs aggressive statewide campaigns against marriage equality and against pro-equality candidates – from state legislators on up to President. The Pew Research Center reported NOM’s spending on advocacy in Washington, D.C. increased 161% from 2008-09 - at a time when the country is reeling from the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.

Long expert at dismantling advancement through the ballot box -- witness California’s Prop 8 in 2008 and Maine’s Question 1 in 2009 -- NOM has increasingly taken a more aggressive approach in its fringe mission. The group’s newest chairman, John Eastman, is horribly anti-gay. And the group is calling on the GOP presidential candidates to set up a presidential commission if elected to “investigate” LGBT Americans - all the while NOM remains under investigation by the Maine Ethics Commission. Here are some key points

Иначе филма и аз ще го гледам, ама на рип. Пари няма да дам.
